A World Without Hate Is a World Without Love

I see a world of contradiction
Full of kisses and blows

War and destruction everywhere I turn
Peace a luxury for only the chosen few

This world is becoming ugly to me
Its beauty is being lost in the burning masses

To co-exist we must strive to find the balance
For a world without hate is a world without love
