Love and Hate - Morph

Love is something we cannot do without...
     to rove and never give or take, no doubt
creates within, a dark and empty cove...
      in sharing love, the joys of life get wove.

Hate, in contrast, must not reside within.
     To sate is poisonous and rife with sin...
a virtue that will bring us a sad fate
     when meeting God outside that pearly gate.
