A Conclusion of Love

by parker-blackwood

Do I believe there is love? Of course Yet it is hard to say that I have experienced such a thing And in that it is just as hard to try and justify to anyone that there is, in fact, love I do not know what is sadder: That I have not experienced love or the way I am responsive to it I know who I am supposed to love But it is no love that I can tell But this is the truth: I know of hate Hatred I believe in Hatred I am all too familiar with I suppose I could be so enveloped in my own self-hatred Comparing all other things to me that I love almost anything and anyone So from my conclusions I extract this: Because I participate in the deepest and most strewn out of hate I know that it exists Therefore, love, comparative to my involvement in hate, can only lead me to an assumption: If hatred exists, then so must love
