Word Morph Poem Hate-Love

Hate is like a poison in my veins.
I Have to purge its awful burning stain.
That Hive of bees that buzzes in my brain.
The life I wish to Live insists I rise above.
For only truly then can I know Love.

I'm not sure it's anything more than a zany idea I had. I've always loved word morphs and since I love poetry as well I figured: why not. I'll probably be making a contest for this soon.
