One AND THE Same


 

What is it that fuels the fire

HATE

It swells up from the darkest places

HATE

It is respected

HATE

It is never told that it isn’t good enough

HATE

It tears the world apart without a second glance

HATE

What is it that fuels the fire

LOVE

It swells up from the darkest places

LOVE

It is respected

LOVE

It is never told it isn’t good enough

LOVE

It tears the world apart without a second glance

LOVE

Perhaps one isn’t worse than the other.

Perhaps they come from the same place.

Perhaps they are the same thing.
