How hatred can be alchemized into love

Text within this block will maintain its original spacing when published

The saddest poem I ever wrote 
Was the one in which my pride was smote 
Sad but true 
With the power to liberate you 
I no longer care if something is sad 
In the end all that matters is freedom 
Once I can liberate me 
I am free to be all that I can be 
I hear the love in my son's voice 
And in my daughter’s too 
And I know I have achieved something 
And that it is true
 
I heard the hatred in my mother's voice 
And I knew that it was true 
And I alchemized it in my heart 
And made it into love for you
 
I did that in this lifetime 
And it stands the test of time 
It was an act of lasting Grace 
And it has saved this heart of mine
