Love and hate
<p>*Love and Hate*
</p><p>
</p><p>Love builds with open hands.
</p><p>Hate tears down with clenched fists.
</p><p>Love remembers your name on a bad day.
</p><p>Hate only remembers the day you were wrong.
</p><p>
</p><p>Love is staying when it’s hard.
</p><p>Hate is leaving to prove a point.
</p><p>Love asks, _“Are you okay?”_
</p><p>Hate asks, _“Whose fault is this?”_
</p><p>
</p><p>Love grows in the quiet.
</p><p>In texts that say _take care_.
</p><p>In forgiveness that doesn’t keep receipts.
</p><p>In choosing someone, again.
</p><p>
</p><p>Hate burns fast.
</p><p>It feels like power for a minute,
</p><p>then leaves you empty and loud.
</p><p>It wants to win,
</p><p>even if it means losing you.
</p><p>
</p><p>Love and hate live close.
</p><p>Same heart, different choice.
</p><p>One makes the world softer.
</p><p>One makes the world smaller.
</p><p>
</p><p>So we decide, every day:
</p><p>Do we widen, or do we shrink?
</p><p>Do we hold, or do we throw?
</p><p>Do we heal, or do we hurt?
</p><p>
</p><p>Because in the end,
</p><p>hate is loud but it gets tired.
</p><p>Love is quiet, and it stays.
</p><p>
