The Hatred In The Love We Gave

We journeyed together for numerous times. 

we shared usual and common memories. 

Even with the wolves in sheep clothing,

We weren't fools to overlook. 

We ran our administration together.

Irrespective of our beliefs, values, and virtues. 

This family is called a *"knitted one"*.

We went through intense storms together.

We loved the love we emit hoping it was real and genuine.

Envy was thrown at us. 

We had scars for each other, unfortunately only one took. 

Recently, we had gone deep into our family.

Oh! the time seemed deceiving. 

Oh! the journey was far spent. 

People started sacrificing this gift of a family.

For mere pleasure 

Mere satisfaction 

I saw this, the display of forfeiting 

The little betrayal came, I ignored 

The little lies came,we ignored. 

Oh the bigger rock hit, this caused a trauma in the bond which we paid prices to build. 

Shattered was the Dream we had, 

Faded is the memories we shared. 

I feared to write this of my family.

But it began with a trial of poison. 

I could see the hatred in the love we gave

The death in our living, 

The sadness in our joy,

The darkness in our light,

The gap in our chain,

The division in our unity,

The cruelty in our kindness, 

The war in our peacemaking,

The anger in our silence. 

I could see the negative vibe

In the positive form offered.

Indeed 

I smell a stench of hatred

In the love, we shared in times.
