I am beautiful and terrible,
Devine and a sinner,
Lost and elated,
I am loving and bitter,
I am uncontrolled and grounded,
Drifting and secure.
I have secrets and I am orchestral,
I am my own necropolis and a paragon,
I am a sweet smell and I am panchromatic,
Pallid and immaculate.
I am sad by what is and ecstatic for what will be.
Stars and light, stone and shaded.
I am harsh.  I am complex.  I am now and tomorrow.
