What makes people hate?
To go from love to hate so fast?
One minute you are friends,
Sharing secrets and coffee,
And the next…
They are sharing lies and hatred.
About you to others.
What causes the turn?
Is it envy?
Is it jealousy?
Is it strife?
Is it another one of the 7 deadly sins?
Why do we let things come between friendship?
Between common decency,
Between love,
When we start hurting others
Because of our own insecurities
There is a problem!
When we start hurting others,
Because we don’t have what they have,
There is a problem!
When we start hurting others,
Because they don’t look or talk like we do,
There is a problem!
When we start hurting others,
Because we don’t want to take the time to be decent anymore,
There is a problem!
In life you can be a part of the problem or the solution.
Which one are you?
