Steemit Exclusive Poem: Let Go of That Hate

---

Let go of that hate

Hate not for it is not worth it. Waste not your time with it.
There is more to life than hate. Free yourself.

Hate brings nothing but pain. Release yourself from it.
It won't make your life better but makes it bitter.

A shackle that binds us, that is hate.
Don't let yourself be drag. Break free!

Sorrowful memory, betrayal, the cause of hate.
Let everything go, time heals the pain.

Rage is not unending, tears will dry.
Breathe deeply, calm your mind, make it better.

The storm of the soul, it too will stop.
The Sun will appear, after the dark sky.

To battle the hate forgiveness is the key.
Violence brings nothing, only ruins.

Futile! Revenge is not the answer.
Forget such thoughts, or you will hurt yourself.

Hate births hate. Let love birth love instead.
Fight with love, bring the heat against hate

Don't turn your back, cower not, face hate with courage.
In this blessed time, let go of that hate...

Hate, it's the cause of countless conflicts. There are many reasons for it. Betrayals, beliefs, race, colors and countless more reasons.

But, is it worth it? No, it is not. Hate brings nothing but sorrow and pain. Though it is our emotion, a part of us. There is absolutely no reason to let hate control us. We are better than that.

In this Lenten season let go of that hate and forgive, just like how God forgives our sins through Christ. God bless!
