I Wanted To Write a Poem About Hate
I wanted to write a poem about hate…
as a way to understand it
but the more I tried…the more this poem…
didn’t go the way I planned it…
I wanted to write a poem about hate…
but the more I searched my brain
I found hate much too complicated…
too difficult to explain…
I wanted to write poem about hate…
instead the best I can do
is write about something I’ve often wondered about
something…I believe to be true….
Something we all need to be reminded….
to remember before it’s too late…
how we were created by love…to love
not created by hate…to hate.
It’s funny:
I wanted to write a poem about hate
because lately…it’s what I’ve been thinking of
but when I sat down to actually write it
all I could think about
was love.
