Love to Hate

by Jenna   Mar 31, 2009


You can't hear my piercing screams
as you walk down the street.
You can't hear my heart breaking
into every tiny piece.
My fingers dig into the earth
as I'm on my knees.
Tears drop into the dirt
and they stain my cheeks.
Wheezes and gasps for air
as I hyperventilate.
Amazing how a person
can go from love to hate.

    "You can't hear my piercing screams
    as you walk down the street."
    `Your word choice is great here, right from the start. I really enjoyed 'piercing screams' I thought you did well on that. :]

    "You can't hear my heart breaking
    into every tiny piece."
    `This is kind of a sad piece, shouldnt it be under the sad category? Lost relationship possibly?

    "Tears drop into the dirt
    and they stain my cheeks."
    `I dont like stain, thats a word so overused to describe when tears fall onto our cheeks.. theres so many overused phrases for something like this.. try seeing what else you can come up with.

    "Amazing how a person
    can go from love to hate."
    `So true, its amazing how drastically things can change. One minute you may love someone and the next hate them. Its sad but definatly happens in our lives sometimes.

    5/5.

    Though this poem maybe short. But you have presented vivid images which allows the readers to visualize.

    I think these lines stood out for me:

    My fingers dig into the earth

    and they stain my cheeks
    ^^^ I like how you describe this. This is amazing

    Well it's funny how you can go from love to hating someone that u once love. Well actually it all depends if the break-up is for the best of the both of u...coz u dun want to love someone who doesn't love you. So yeah I hope that u're fine.

    Excellent Job

    We all want to love and be loved. When our feeling are betrayed by one who we thought cared for us, the pain is just as you described.

    Yes, it is wierd how we reach a level, where our feelings changes from love to the opposite...

    I know this feeling, it isnt nice to go through hating your once called love-prince charming-the one...

    but i think there is more in life than to just fall in love, i mean love is just ONE thing in life...some people think that they're living to fall in love and that's life! life moves on and so should we...
