To feel the fire
to feel the passion burning through your soul
what is this
what is it called
is this love
or could it be hate
some say they feel the fire of love
but is it true
can they really feel it
or are they mistaken
for how could you feel love in a world full of hate
is there really something called love
or is it just something parents tell they're children to get them to sleep
will we ever truly know all of this
can we ever really find love
should we try or is it a lost causes
but what do you have to lose by trying

&quot;My best friend gave me the best advice. He said, &quot;Each day&#039;s a gift and not a given right. Leave no stone upturned. Leave your fears behind and try to take the path less traveled by. That first step you take is the longest stride&quot;

It also reminds me how Love & Hate can switch so fast. I may allusion ur poem in some prose poems on abstract nouns... that is if it's ever accepted! >:(
