Remember when life was easy?
All you had to do was cry to mother
And there was your bottle and
You smiling so empty,
yet cute.
She loved you.-
Now life is so hard
And you can't disregard
The hate that is burning.
All day, you feel it within your soul, turning,
Hoping the love will stay
But without giving love a chance
you-
Run away...

"~Sometimes you have to forgive someone because you want them in your life."~~

Hate we have controls and keeps us from
loving....Difficult, though not impossible
to overcome..

Hope it works out for ya..

bluRaven, I could feel the emotion in this poem. If it's about
you, I'm sorry that you're feeling this way...

I'll go out on a limb here and say hate's a bad thing.  Good poem.

bluRaven,
good poem, full of emotion.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Life is an experience - from beginning to end... We have no choice but to learn as we go... and hopefully use our lessons wisely.  Expressing ourselves poetically surely helps, doesn't it?
