Hatred
When only hatred fills your heart
Hatred through and through
A barrier to cupid’s dart
And everything else too.
You weave my life on canvas
You weave it all the time
Never letting me be free
To live a life sublime.
I have to tell you something
I have to say it now
For it is time for me to be
All that I did vow.
Put aside your hatred
Put aside your lies
Let the real truth
Fill your hearts
And open up your minds
Wake up to a new day
Wake up and see the sky
Realise that you don’t have to be
Evil till you die.
Pure love is in my heart
Pure love is in my soul
For me loving everyone
Has been a lifetime goal.
Even those who hurt me
Especially I should say
For it’s their hearts
That need it most
To help them see the way.
They should love their neighbours
They should love their friends
Then we’d live in a world
Full of love and not revenge
