Hate or Not?

by Reader Castellan

Alex has mixed feelings about Yassen. Did he truly hate the assassin or was there a part of him that actually admired the killer of his uncle, and the friend of his father?

Hate…or Not?

This feeling, I do not know

Whenever I see him, my heart burns with anger.

This feeling of hatred the world did sow

In my miserable heart.

When I met him, all I wanted to do was to kill

The man responsible for Ian's death

But the look in his eyes did fill

Forgiveness in my heart.

I search for him everywhere

But what I will do upon meeting him I do not know

I see him here and I see him there

But it is just hallucination and hatred that resides in my heart.

So why do I feel sad when he is dying?

The look he gives me is as if he is my father

I want to cry even as his corpse is lying

For he has a special place in my heart.

Yassen, I hate you

But you are also my best friend

And I really feel sorry for you yet I feel the presence of you

Because you are still alive in my heart.
