Hate

by

Heather Nicole Luther

Hate is something
That is taught,
And we’re not born knowing the concept
As so many have once thought.

We are born into this world
With very innocent minds,
And we know nothing more than
To accept people of all kinds.

As we grow older hatred is
Implanted in our brain and heart,
And it teaches us how to let our
Differences drive us apart.

We’re taught to dislike and discriminate
Against those who stand out,
And we’re told the make fun of them
And at them to scream and shout.

It’s drilled in our heads that
We are the only "ones" who count,
But in all honesty we all do
Most definitely and without a doubt.

The only thing they forget to teach us
Is the fact that we’re really all the same,
And that we should be able to live our lives
And be ourselves without feeling any shame.

We all may look different
And like different things,
But this shouldn’t keep us from
Enjoying the joy life brings.

We shouldn’t hate anyone, and not even

The ones who taught it to us,
‘Cause remember we’re all born with innocent minds
And you can agree with that without a fuss.
