What Is Hate

WHAT IS HATE?

What is Hate?
A word with hidden meanings
An emotion that gets out of hand
A feeling each has experienced
Plaguing all of this land.
Why do we Hate?
To cover up disappointment 
To hurt someone we know
A feeling eating at us
Yet eating very slow.
What is Hate?
The start of all mans troubles
Fighting to prove point of view
Using hate to survive upon
But stop it’s killing you
Why not Love?
Be gentle kind and true
Try it then you’ll be surprised
How love will alter you.
