ODE TO HATE by KENNETH OODEE

Oh! my dear friend,
From this beginning, we chose to end
On this lonely night of daylight
The darkness in your eyes shines bright
Forget the post man
Remember this message
That in this full breathe of suffocation,
I express my love as benediction
Tho I remember the hate
indeed, it was a memorable date

Truth is, I have nothing against you
Still I have so much to tell you
That I grew with the season
You should do the same for no reason
Else the burden will be yours
Regardless the pretense with smiles
The sun comes anew everyday,
There’s no point being stagnant everyday
For the pain will trouble you chest
In imagination, I know the rest

In bitterness of truth,
The trees can’t live without the root
Behind you, your eyes can’t see
I’m looking for you
All that you wish for,
I’m rooting for you
One day we’ll both rise above this earthly cares
And karma will no longer be your fears
One thing we have in common is time
Truth be told, I love you with rhyme.
