Hate

Hate

Hate is a strong passionate feeling.

Hate is as strong as love.

But why exactly are they so similar?

They both can help you or hurt you.

But why would you hate someone?

You can have a love/hate relationship.

But why would you put them together?

Something as amazing and beautiful as love, with something as nasty and disgusting as hate?

When is it the right time to hate someone?

Is there ever a right time to hate someone?

Is it when they break your heart?

Is it when they stab you in the back?

Or how about when you get into a fight?

Personally I don’t see a “Right” time to hate someone.

I don’t see a reason to.

I don’t understand why people can’t just forgive and forget.

But naturally we all hold hate inside us.

For our protection against pain.

It is our drug to get by,

And no matter how hard we try not to,

We all do it.

Hate can change the world. Love has the same power. Poem is very good. Description and story was strong in your words. A outstanding poem.
