My Poem book(#2): Echoing Hearts

Desire

Hate.
It's not held by the heart- rather, the mind.
Love.
Now that's held by the heart.
The heart is fragile, for its not eternal.
It can be killed-
Stabbed, destroyed...
Hurt.
It can be broken down.
But love?
If you truly love someone...
Its eternal.
It can never die--
And no one can never come between it.
They say hate is a strong word.
Well
It is.
But love is even stronger.
Yes,
You can come to hate...
But
You can also learn to love.
To care.
For no one is ever lost.
Because every heart can be found.
Rather you're a human,
A monster,
Or whatever you think you are...
We're all driven by the same thing.
Desire.
A feeling.
Something, a feeling even a monster can feel.
And because of that, we are all the same.
They also say that the heart makes the man.
But--
The heart can feel.
It's not weak to cry...
To break down
To lose it.
It just goes to show you have a heart.
For even a killer can be human.
There is no such thing as a monster, I say...
Because a killer has desire.
And that desire, makes us all human.
We all strive to be something more...
To be greater,
Better
Higher.
No matter the color,
Gender
Race
Or age.
We're all the same.
So don't forsake.
We are the ones who cause, who make...
Even the kindest of people can cause the worst of pain.
Our selfish deeds
The sins we create
The heaven we try to make...
This place isnt a hell...
Nor a paradise.
This world is and can only be the way we make it...
Our actions cause
Our actions drive--
We've become so stuck on believing monsters exist.
But do they?
We were all born human to start with.
So how could we br monsters?
Don't fear the person
Nor actions
Nor the personality
But, rather, the heart.
It's where everything comes from.
From mind to words to sounds heard.
We are the parasit.
But life must go on.
All we can do is survive.
Make the most of life.
Some try...
Try to make a better place.
While others believe they're monsters.
So tell me now....
What are you?
Even if you cannot feel emotions,
There's still desire.
It's not only an emotion, but a want.
Its....well, it's a desire.
It's what drives who we are,
What makes this world...
Its what keeps us going...
And keeps our hearts alive.
For us humans are never satisfied with what we have unlike animals.
We will always desire more...
