Hate

You talk about love

But all I hear is hate

You talk about patience

But you can’t seem to wait

Can’t wait to scream

Can’t wait to shout

Can’t wait to get your opinion out

You want a change

But you refuse to understand

You refuse to listen to your fellow man

You say to have and open mind

but your heart is closed

you reject the opinions

of those who are opposed

can’t you see what you’re doing

can’t you see the hypocrisy?

Instead of spreading love

You’re creating animosity

We need mutual respect

We need understanding and faith

You want things to change

There is a better way

Put down the fingers

We all are to blame

Stop hurling out insults

And calling out names

Show each other love, compassion and kindness

Because all of the hatred is making us mindless

If we truly want to make the world a better place

We need to understand that we are all one race

We are the race of mankind

All of our dreams can be tangible

If only we wake up and stop acting like animals

We need love more than ever

We need to believe

That only together

Can we hope to achieve

Our goal of equality

Of fairness for all

Because if we give into hatred

We will surely fall.
