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
