Sonnet to Hatred...

There is much hate,
yes,there is much hate...
You would like to believe,
have faith, trust your brothers...

You would like to know,
understand the love yonder...
Amongst the stoney heartless souls,
there does lie tender love and faith,or so I hope...

There in the darkness of starry nights,
here in the smokey caverns of burning desire,
you would love to know, there is,
much more than what is concretely shown...

But then again, I find myself alone,
and in daylight,I find, there is much hate...

negativity/anger lead to hatred,
love and kindness would make it less hurtful...

lovely delivery of your emotions.
Thanks for sharing.

Karthik,
Difficult times, bring us to think like this, I suppose.
In all though, we must seek to remain hopeful and to guide change, away from hatred.
Profound words......

Best wishes, Eileen

I AM the opposite.
I find there is much to love.
We get to choose!

I like that you included the lines, "Amongst the stoney heartless souls,
there does lie tender love and faith,or so I hope..."
And it's true, there does! ;)

Can you escape this hatred? Its part of world alike other emotions. We can't know what it is to be loved unless we have been through hatred... Nice words..
