Hate Spreads Hate


I hate thet I hate myself.

I hate that I think I hate myself,

When the truth is,

I don't.

I don't hate who I am 

Or

What I look like.

I hate that people hate how I am.

I am a person.

I'm not a mannequin 

Or a model, but

I am still beautiful.

I am good-looking,

I am smart,

I am funny.

I am everything

I need to be and 

Your hate

Will not change me.

I hate that you spread your hate,

But what I hate more

Is that people

Believe it.
