I used to write hate
on a shiny piece of paper
written with ink
that shines like glitter
But now I've realized
I have written shadows on the light
My notes dont deserve darkness and my thoughts shouldnt be blind
And though all was done
it was a zillion minutes ago,
A part of me says
it's time to let go
Let the shadows of my thoughts
be doomed through the light of fire
Let only be ashes remained
Of my once ignorant mind
Let this poem be my reminder
of the shadows I have burned,
Of the hate I once loved
That I have boldly betrayed

I hated this person for so many years, so long that I already forgot the reasons why. After the Christmas of 2015 I found an old hate note I wrote about her and I was shocked on how disgusted I was. Right there I realized that hate doesn't need to be written and saved. Influenced by the hopeful Christmas songs (hahah!) I decided to burn it and forget about the hate. Well, you know what they say "give love on Christmas day"
