This poem might be confusing so the “meaning” behind it follows the end after you’ve read it.


Our Hate/Love Battle

Overcome with emotion

Totally lost in this notion

Which one is truest?

Which one is cruelest?

I need to follow my heart

And not fall apart

Keep my head screwed on tight

Stay strong through the fight

Of love and of hate

Of hate and of love

Because I can’t show my weakness

Of for as long as my bleakness

Cuz you might just come out on top

And if you come out on top

Our hate/love game will be stopped

But which would you choose?

To love and not lose

Or to hate and forget

And live a life of regret?

The battle is raging

And our hearts are still waging

If we were ever destined to be

But we’ll come to our senses

Rebut our defenses

Knowing the other is right

Heightening our battle of love and hate

Through heartache and grief

You heart-stealing thief

All your flirting were lies

That have broken the ties

That one bonded us so tightly together

Now we’re almost two strangers

In a battle with dangers

That could wound more then you think

I’m fighting for love, to keep my heart whole

While you fight for what could endanger my soul

You don’t do it purposely, anything but

But I try to agree with you and keep my mouth shut

Thought none of that works cuz I need my voice heard

To shout through the tears

And the defiance of years

That separates us in more ways then one

I need someone bold, daring, and caring

Someone who is basically you

While you need someone pretty and charming from age

Someone mature who knows how to gauge

So many things I’ve never been through

That won’t come ‘til the passage of age

I know that you’re right

But without such a fight

How would I know if we were?

If we ended up together

Forever and ever

With me in your arms oh-so tight

How would I know,

If our relationship growed

And blossomed to what if could be?

The truth is I wouldn’t,

But just the potential we had

And you might like to live a life of regret

But to me I would be too sad

I don’t know if you’re blind

Or just out of your mind

Because I see what we had

And it’s so out of this world

Maybe it’s just too sudden for you

It’s so new to us both

But I’m willing to cope

If we can end this battle for good

I beg and I plead

But you’ll never heed

To anything I put on your plate

The more I care, the more you hate

So stop acting like a two year old,

This is fate!

You must decide now

But don’t ask me how

Because I know in my heart

I’ll always love you

You must decide on your own

The path you will choose…


It’s been a year

And I still love you dear

But things just never worked out

You went away

And you left me to stay

By my cold lonesome self

You won the battle of love and hate

But battles like these are stronger than fate

Fate brought us together

For that short little time

But we were the ones who created the crime

I wasn’t supposed to fall so hard

But the way you played me just like a card

I should have known better

But I let my guard down

And now I’m still crying

I’m still on the ground

Sometimes I’ll see you, I’ll see you around

But you won’t look at me

You’re too ashamed to be found

Found by what was meant to be

Found by your soul destiny

I know in my heart

We’re never apart

Because truly our battle

Of love and of hate

Of hate and of love

Still rages, still waging its way


Fate brought us together

Then tore us apart

But one day we’ll be resurrected at heart

We’ll join together again

And our battle with cease

But our love for each other will never decrease.


Well, what does this mean, you might ask? You see, I’m a freshman and I take an art class with some seniors and one senior sits next to me and I like him so, so, so much! I flirt with him, but he flirts with me and it’s so obvious cuzz even the senior’s friend is like “john (that’s his name) why are you flirting with kat??” So, I know that he doesn’t like me and after this year I’m not going to see him again (most likely) and the year difference isn’t much at all (only 3 years) but still sometimes it’s a lot. It’s pretty hard, cuz I’m not in his league at all…:( but before the year is over, I can still hope :) So my poem wasn’t entirely on this, it dealt with other things too, but it was mostly ‘bout me and john. And that’s all there is to it…(reviews are also always welcomed)!

Katt xoxo
