We Decide

There are two sides when we start.
Yin and yang it has been called.
In time, one will outgrow the other.
Do we decide what is developed?
A rape that split the core.
Abuse with a heavy fist.
A child shaken to death.
Hopelessness.
A kiss on the brow from a crush.
A hug from a trusted friend.
Pride given freely for effort.
Hopefulness.
In spite the victim may turn.
Passing on the pain that grew.
In retaliation the victim may abuse.
Vengeance grew.
Armed with love the victor loved.
Love was passed from person to person.
Until darkness was enlightened.
Forgiveness grew.
We decide what we cultivated!
We decide what we pass on!
We decide to hold on to hopelessness!
We decide which road we take; love or hate!
