Love and Hate

Love and Hate
The two most powerful emotions of all
One positive, one negative;
Yet both complimentary to each other.

Love to Hate, Hate to Love
Either way all are born by fate
To feel pain and pleasure
To know light from dark.

Hate born From Love, Jealousy
Love from Hate, Empathy;
Both the same,
Yet different in their own way.

The Ying and Yang of emotions
A balance of perfect proportions,
This is what makes humans unique,
This is what brings peace and destruction to our world.
