The Eyes of a Tiger

By MC

Hate is a warm heart turned cold
Hate has the eyes of a tiger with a darkened soul
Hate is mom dukes snatched up at night
Hate is like a snake
Whose grip will perpetuate
Hate is a broken heart
That never got sewed

    I really like this poem because it is short and simple. Reading the poem helps me to relate to a point in my life where I experienced strong hate against a person.
