and hate there was
and is,
on my mind this time.
again
i have hate to hate.
Perhaps there will not be a gift of love,
So be it !
but even still,
once again ...i try and send
and defend and
begin again
to send
to you a gift
That is meant to be
the best until the end of time.
That is,
i mean to say that if there is not one
person who will unwrap my gift,
then how can any ...,
Or many,
Choose me?
That is a hate,
i hate having to live.
Love is a Gift!

Indeed love is the best gift that can be given. A lovely write
Thank you that was a poem that I wrote some years after a letter that was very deeply written to my sister with my own tears running the ink on the page while i wrote it with the intention of letting her know just how valuable to me she was and to not give up on herself. She was only 22 and I was 20 years old at the time.
The letter was well received and she came off of a very dangerous addiction to crack cocaine. I later will post the letter as it was truly poetic in its own right
