Love Your Enemies! Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

Love Your Enemies!

Rating: 5.0


Should an enemy be in the friend's list?
Should an enemy be in the ban's list?
When the enemy is in the friend's list,
Either the enemy is dubious or a friend,
When the friend is in the Ban's list,
Either the friend is dubious or a foe,
When that famous enemy of someone,
Was listed in the friend's list of the same,
How many of you shocked and never asked?
As a vocal person, I never raise my voice against abuse,
As I am still confused with the traits of the artists,
Who are good at acting as predators and victims.

Hmm somtimes humans assume someone as foes when they r only friendly unless provoked with hate. D world needs more luv than hate. Very nicely written poem.
