It should come
As no surprise
That those who
Should love
Instead despise...

But

Can you love
What you're destroying
What you're enjoying
What's annoying
You today?

Can you love
The one you're hating
No debating
You're debasing
Them this way.

But love doesn't come
With a side
Of despising
Of reprising wrongs
Of surmising thoughts.

Love doesn't come
With a side
Of hating
With ignoring
With debate
And debasing
With threats replacing...

What's there instead?

That's called
Abuse.

Where we're oft
Trapped
And can't
Be loosed.

So don't lie and
Call your
Actions love
When other words
Fit like a glove.
