Hate or Love

Contributed by sarah_may on Saturday, 8th November 2003 @ 02:46:46 AM in AEST
Topic: MiscPoems

I look around
And what I see,
You may not believe it,
But it startles me.

I hear a loud sound,
Afraid of what it might be.
A family surrounded by guards,
Begging and pleading to be set free.

I hear a loud explosion,
Though it is far away.
It is destroying many lives,
Every single day.

I looked around again,
My eyes are met with anguish.
And one thought fills my mind:
How could people be so selfish?

Then I fully realized
What was happening to me.
I was in the future,
Seeing what our world will be;

If we keep on fighting,
Then this is our world to be.
Cold and unfriendly,
Is not appealing to me.

But if this fighting ceases,
We can all live happily.
All the pain and hate is gone,
And we can live content as can be.

Our world is not perfect,
It could go either way.
Hate or love?
It’s a choice we make every single day.

Of your two choices,
I hope you pick the latter.
You don’t think it makes a difference,
But in the end, it will matter.

So hate or love.
What one will you choose?
I hope it’s love,
‘Cause hate’s a word we can afford to lose.

Need to lose the word hate but also the meaning behind the word...thanks for sharing.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
