Hate

Hate is a strong word
We have all heard it before
But it’s stronger than you might think
As it can lead to the shedding of gore
People underestimate hate
But it is very straight
It means to dislike enough to kill
And this opens the gate
In which people walk in
They say that they hate you
But they don’t understand
That this can arrest them to
In which they get mad
Enough to do bad
And when they find you
You become very sad
They don’t mean what they say
When they used the word hate
But what they did mean
Is that they were very enraged
I leave you with this
It may not be the best
But let it sink in
Right down to your chest
Do not say you hate
For it is too strong for people
For if you do without knowing
You could fall off the steeple

Ugly

Can ugly be judged?
That’s what I wonder
It seems like it is all the time
It's just such a blunder
You’re hot
You’re not
Same thing all the time
But it is never sought
People think they’re ugly
People think they’re pretty
But in the end
Being either is kind of shitty
Having to be skinny
Having to be mini
Just to be pretty
Just doesn’t seem like your winning
But to some it’s their life
This to them is just great
But to the ugly they seek not to be
All they get is hate
This isn’t right
This only starts fights
Between the pretty and the ugly
The pretty have the ugly in their sights
I leave you with this
It may not be the best
But let it sink in
Right down to your chest
Ugly isn’t real
And pretty is dull
But who do exist
Are people that are beautiful
**Don’t let people say you’re ugly
For this is not true
All that really matters
Are the thoughts and opinions that come from you

People

People around you

People you know

People have fun

That’s how it goes

But when the fun is you

What do you do?

It’s all down hill from here

This is what this poem adheres to

People are mean

People are nice

But when it comes to being rude

The innocent pay the price

This leads to depression

For the meanness’ succession

People laugh at this

But it’s nothing more than repression

This isn’t great

This isn’t funny

But it’s what the people want

And the people don’t like it sunny

This kills the soul

Frightens the toll

Of what’s left inside

Which leaves no goal

I leave you with this

It may not be the best

But let it sink in

Right down to your chest

People are cruel

They make the rules

Don’t let them get to you

And you won’t be like the fools
