Poles Apart Slam

If lines and verse are indeed
the tool's we poet's are to use
in order to dictate the thought
process of one's inner soul

Then surely love should capture
an inadvertent overture of subtleties,
tenderness and kindness

And on the other hand if one wishes
to vent one's rage the pen should 
pierce deep into he page

And yet at any stage what once
at first began as love can just as
easily turn to rage

As love and rage are seldom not
poles apart 

Much like tears of joy and sorrow

Just depends on feelings at a
certain point in time and how we
choose to express them then

And whether or not one was hopelessly
head over heals in love and wanted
all the world to know

Or rather suffering the painful
affliction of abroken heart and 
want your significant other to pay

Love and rage are emotions and can interplay, I think you have painted a poetically perfect picture of the two. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
