“Hate is what we feel when we've been hurt. But this hurt isn't because someone did something wrong to us, it's because they destroyed that one part of you. Hate is not big, it's strong and it controls your life. The past is what we hate, the things that happened, the struggles we were in, the times we were alone. This all conjoins to one word; Hate. Love cannot take it, nor break it, not hide it, nor cure it, not steal it, nor keep it. Love is the opposite to hate, opposite's don't attract.”
