Will Love Win Today Poem by Cody Marks

Will love win on this day
What will hate burn in us
Does love have a chance
If we are given the choice

I hope that we will see
Within ourselves a caring
Tender self that dares not
Give into the burning heat

We can choose to smile
To offer a tender look
Our hearts yearn to love
And reveal its four selves

Hatred does not win in us
Until we surrender ourselves
To its vulgar poisons
It is not a cup we must drink

Drink not of its potion
That it may destroy us all
Remember to be kind on this day
Love wins if we choose to allow it
