Hatred is irrational
raw and spiteful
venom unleashed
from deep inside
where old hurts have been cherished
and polished
to be flung back
with added bile
red
purple
black
incandescent glowing
ready to explode
Hate can be extinguished by love
but it will take so much love
that much love will be melted and burned away
leaving hurt and bruised lovers
while the hating still smolders
awaiting the final damping down
with even more love
(Just because it is difficult to overcome hate with love doesn't mean it is impossible or that we shouldn't try. But we must not underestimate how costly it will be....)
