La Hermana

16 8 09

I realise that this is a difficult one to comment on – how could I hate someone, or even attack them ? There is only one person that I hate and this is that person – there are many very good reasons for this. It no longer has any bearing on my life (I would not have been able to write this if it did). It’s gone – whoosh !!

I didn’t hate you when I did it
it was purely out of anger
I snapped the hairbrush handle
like a bottle on a bar
A slash across your cheek
and it was suddenly all over.
You cried, I didn’t feel a thing.
I didn’t hate you when I did it
but I do now

    You know, you write with a fearlessness and courage most people don’t. I’m in awe of your raw honesty, and the emotions you aren’t afraid of expressing.

    Did you switch perspectives? Is this one person or two? I like it either way. Wow! Nice

  • RebeccaWeston replied

    For my sins this is just me – it’s a bit like your “Rhino Is Trying” – I’m not a nasty person but there is someone that I dislike very much and it just had to slip out / get away from me, after all this time XX

    “I didn’t hate you when I did it…but I do now” Does that not ring my memory bells! Kinda like: I will hate you ‘til you love me. I read this way back when. Too stuck to comment then. Actually thought I had.

    happyfeet5

    Wow. To strike real hard and then not to feel a thing about it. You didn’t hate the person then, but you do now. The poem is thought provoking as to how people react and change about what they feel about other people. Great work and congrats on your feature. Iris

  • RebeccaWeston replied

    Imagine hurting someone as much as they have hurt you, although it is not within you to do it. It may be difficult not to hate
