Friendship Poem

Strange feelings shared by all creatures...
Creeping in one's life unannounced...
Perplexity stirs in one's emotion...
Asking thyself, why do I feel this way?

As I hear the raindrops falling
A beautiful feeling dances within me
You face is like a wonderful vision
That follows me all around

Ahh, I guess this is what they call LOVE
The most beautiful word ever created
Yet, it is the strangest emotion of them all
That changes one's life forever

Before, there was silence in my life
For my heart has never been disturb
Until I met this wonderful creature
That made my heart summersault with joy!!!

A glimpse of you brings music to my heart
Wanting to dance with you at all times
Yet you turn your sight away from me
Now, another emotion started to build in me

As I see you walking hand in hand with another
Tears kept flowing from my eyes forever
For I know absurdity it may sound to you
My world crumbled right before my eyes

Is it fair for my heart to feel this way?
Or it's part of one's creation to succumb to these?
What then would I do as I asked myself
My world had stopped to turn as I HATE you now

I wanted to run away from this feeling
For it brings emptiness into my life
Yet it's like a disease that follows you around
Unwelcome, but it will turn you upside down

I thought that running to a higher ground
Would keep me safe from this feeling
Nowhere to go, nowhere to run
Wanted to disappear in oblivion

Somehow, somewhere, life will turn around for me
For I know that someone special would come into my life
Still remembering that God created me for a purpose
Waiting for my destiny as I look forward to the future

Love, hate, love, hate....
Two strange words interlock one another
So beware and always be on guard
For they might be right besides you...giving you the spice of life
