Love and Hate

Once upon a shiny star, Hate discovered love’s beauty Though it was from afar, He knew it was his duty But blind young love could not see Old hate for what he was He did take it all with glee Help for love there never was Out of this hell then began, What we know as modern man! -written in 1989 with syllable count updated, possibly my first, some lost in time -
