H-A-T-E
November 26, 2016
HATE
H-A-T-E
A word so powerful beyond belief
A word with synonyms, and antonyms with different names,
Hate is a white shirt drenched in crimson red blood,
Hate is my best friend stopped at the airport for what she wore on her head,
Hate is people telling a girl who was raped, that she shouldn't have worn her lace red dress to a party,
Hate is telling her that her rape was justified by her alcohol intake,
Hate is telling me I am a sex object for the career I wish to pursue,
Hate is stereotyping that every Hispanic and Black,
Is somehow the same,
Hate is ugly,
Hate is violent,
Hate can be killed,
By learning how to accept,
How to love,
And that's how we can forget how to hate
