They say that the opposite of love is hate.
Though few realize the true opposite of love is indifference.
To not love for someone,
Is to not care for the person at all.
You do not dwell over them.
You do not get angry or feel sorrow over their actions.
It is true however that hate is a step away from love.
True hate I mean.
Not loath.
Not dislike.
But true hatred for another.
Because without love...
You feel nothing.
Only those who truly know someone.
Know the depths of their mind and soul.
Who have truly felt love for the person.
Can feel hatred towards them.
You can not despise ever fiber of another,
Unless you know every part of them as you know yourself.
Love and hate go hand in hand.
You can not have one without the other.
So as long as you hate someone...
Just know,
Even if it is the tiniest part of you.
Or hidden in the deepest depths of your heart.
Apart of you still feels a love towards them.
