Where do we draw the line....Love....Hate
Where do we draw the line....Love....Hate Love Hate What is Love? What is Hate? Some say that the both are interwoven That one cannot live without the two in our lives Like positive and negative – Day night – good bad How many crimes have been committed in the name of love? How many cruelties and wars have been sparked by hatred? In some science fiction shows they features beings who have Learned how to take emotions all away But those beings are always depicted as drab and almost lifeless Sublimely reinforcing emotion is necessary for our psyche I have watched as friendships have started, grown Blossomed i into deep affection Sadly I have also seen those same flourishing friendships Turn to hatred Our hearts cannot dictate who we do and do not love So because one loved as a friend and one as a lover Why does it turn to hatred? Why do we need to hurt and belittle that friendship? Because we do not get our way Why does an act of love that hurt to carry out Cause so much pain and bitterness Why do men of such character and compassion Suddenly turn into something that cannot be recognized Why does the pain make us do stupid things? Go with people who are not worthy Why do we need to have someone even? If they are second best? Where did d we lose the ability to be happy With ourselves; to spend time with ourselves Sitting here looking at my life and those of friends Around me, I become saddened…. Young couple meets and fall in love Bring beautiful into the world that both love But somewhere along the way their paths divided The love was lost The innocent are turned into a battlefield Lies e are told truths twisted into something ugly Hate, trauma and bitterness Fill the void left love departs A couple meets, and the man thinks He has found a weak woman who will And can be molded into his idea of what The a perfect little wife is Who will not realize he cannot love her His love is for another man But he is too scared of society to say so They bring into the world A world where there is constant Belittlement, tears, coldness… What heritage and emotional scars Will those carry? A man and a woman meet and fall in love In the most unlikely places, The love burns bright and beautiful And then it is gone bunt out replaced with bitter Ashes and pain neither admitting They still care neither understanding The others pain or the way They try and cover up that pain Why does love turn to disillusionment Coldness cruelty and finally hatred When we can answer that question Maybe our world will have a chance A chance to live in peace and harmony I wonder if I will live to see it |

I think your initial thought that one cannot exist without the other is very correct. In fact, I think they may even be "symbiotic" in that many people seem to be able to express the most profound hatred for those that we care most deeply about. Conversely, we often don't give a shit if someone we don't know (or care about) insults or slights us in some way. Moods tend to determine how we will react, but it seems our reactions are more extreme when feelings run the deepest. The good side is that we are usually more generous, giving and devoted to those we care about the most.
