What We'Ve Hidden

We love some
And we hate others,
We come by friends,
And we stumble upon foes.

We love animals,
But hate what they create
We say things 
but we don't mean them,
we mean things, 
But we don't say them.

we love some,
But pretend to hate them,
We say we know ourselves,
But we really just know the masks we wear.
