The Word I Hate The Most

There's one word I hate the most.

If this one were a character from a novel,

It would be the antagonist for sure.

It's so powerful at such extent,

It can make you feel a lot of pain.

You'll never be able to heal complete,

You'll just learn to live with it,

And manage to babysit

To make this word fall asleep,

But once this one wakes up

And cries for your attention,

You'll end up crying as well,

Both in each other's despair.

That's why I make sure

To always tell my loved ones,

And my closest friends,

How much they mean to me.

It's a must because I care,

Of course, I'm not ashamed.

It's my greatest pleasure

To show my most sincere affection

To all of them.

We hangout as much as we can,

And build amazing memories together.

We eat delicious food

While we catch up with our lives.

We share our ups and downs,

We laugh, cry, get mad, forgive and forget,

And continue enjoying our relationship.

We take pictures and videos,

And be there for each other

With our good will to help.

You see, I don't want to get caught

By this word in a vulnerable state in my life.

At least when this one arrives

I'll be prepared the best way I can.

Therefore, the regret will not

Occupy spaces in my mind and heart.

Well, I think this is all I have

To write in this poem so far.

So... Goodbye.
