What do you do...

What do you do when you are handed happiness?

But don’t know how to use it.

When hatred came so naturally,

as though it was all you knew.

It was what feed your soul,

what kept you running.

But what now, what do you do?

Do you risk embracing the unknown?

for the chance of peace.

Or do you push it away

and stay in your familiar hell?
