HATE FOR HATE'S SAKE

 

 

Hate for hate's sake is something I will never understand
What demons lurk inside the spirit?
Why does man hate his fellow man?
How can you hold such abject hatred for the life another lives?
What creates this loathsome selfishness that never seeks to give?

 

NO! 

I cannot abide hatred that eats away at the soul
I cannot lose myself to madness that will make my life unwhole
I cannot see the purpose in hating and loving no one
To me it seems so pointless, like living in darkness with no hope of the sun

 

I implore you to let go of hatred
Release it and let go
Stop striking out with its weapons
at everyone you know

 

Hatred has a price and once all your hate is spent
You will lose your life and make a final descent
To A Hell full of Haters
The home of the eternally depraved
You will be swallowed in your hatred
A soul too lost to save

 

Don’t join Hell's infinite numbers
Stop your hostility and let love reign
For blessings will come quickly
once you stop your loathing and your pain

 

Find the blessed sanctity that comes from love's release
Then you will soon see Heaven and gain the illumination
of God's great peace

100% agree. Hatred comes in many forms and in many different words. In order to be free, one must not become a slave to their past.
