Love and Hate

There once existed a world
of lost souls.
These souls would drift aimlessly,
no purpose, no emotions;
nothing.

One day there emerged
two strange entities,
unlike all the others.
These beings had purpose.
One was named, “Hate,”
the other was named, “Love.”
Hate’s purpose was to spread
all that is evil
and corrupt the innocent souls.
Love’s purpose was to share
all that is good
and give the souls happiness.

Some souls found Hate
and became demons of hell.
Some found Love
and became angels of heaven.
A small fraction of the souls
found both Love and Hate,
and they became
human.
