Hate what a simple word
Hate a word that will dismay many
Hate is for the reason that many kill
All for in the name of hate
We were taught to be compassionate and loving
To treat our neighbors the way we want to be treated
With hate?

Love, ahh love what a wonderful word
The truth is that it wasn’t l o v e
It was just an illusion
Tricks up your sleeve and nothing up mine
See hearts break and are malleable
So I tried to change yours
Instead mine got torn
Ahhh love, love
Me
Never will you?

Symphony Of Sorrow
Life is nothing but a symphony
With all it’s notes
All of us living are but instruments
And it’s conductor not seen but felt
Like the notes that are heard
Love is just but the composing of the composer
With its mystical wonders
It amazed yet nullifies
But if the sound is strong so can it live on
But as music fades and the instruments get put away
The only thing putting it back together is the orchestra and the conductor
Love is but a piece that only god drew us to and that destiny put back together
And the symphony lives forever
