Mine, Hate

It's quite complicated, hatred.
It can be many things.
It's so common,
or so you think.

You don't know where it comes from.
It's something I can't define.
Between loath and hate,
there's quite a fine line.

I'm a pro at this act..
The skills - don't they shine?
But the talent doesn't come easily,
believe me, it took time.

Thank you, Tyesha, MJ, Vince and Karen. It makes me smile to have a poem featured. And to finally have my writing our there for people to read. But yes Karen, these are feelings and thoughts that I no longer have.

Too bad--hatred only destroys. Hopefully, you've let it go. This is a deep poem for an eleven year old. Congratulations on having it featured. Karen
