Never Enough

You can only hate so much
You can only fight so much
Believe it or not, there is
A limit to the pain

They can only fear so much
Oppressed will rise above
Freedom is a price, has a price
Worth dying for

How much anger can you
Throw into this world?
How long until the earth
Refuses to keep on spinning?

You can only cry so much
You can only hurt so much
Push them to the limit, you will find
Everyone has a breaking point

They will only take so much
They will only bear so much
Try to control, try to force and
Create your perfect enemy

They will never love enough
You can never love enough
The night is darkest before the dawn
But the dawn will come

I think this poem can be interpreted many, many ways, which I will leave up to the reader.
