#opposites poems on Hello Poetry

Now once revived in bed I lay to sleep,
Now once revived from bed to life so steep.
Then many changes found in like came seen,
Then many changes pierced my skin so keen.

To see the world in eyes of colored pen,
For blind are but the eyes of alien,
Do **** the future in reality,
And do not look on past as fallen tree.

Then magnet comes and mind goes through all hell,
And grasping then I feel my opposite:
My brain, my heart, not human I could tell.

Now calculation builds the blocks of mind,
And life and death consuming all I knew,
My world in this new body I must find.

opposites attract

boys like you
don’t notice
girls like me

you’re the type
to play sports
and hang out
with large groups
of people

whereas i’m the
type to hang out
with a few friends
and read a book

some say
opposites attract
but not in my case

relatable anyone?

Westminster Chimes

Fighting for the right
or the left, praising
heroes and heroines,
They scorn all villains.

Time for a breath of air,
weighing their own ways.
Are they being honest with
their harmonies of opposites.

'harmony of opposites' - Marcus Aurelius Meditation 48

Ocean and Mountain

You should've left me where you found me.

"Why do you love mountains?"
"They're steady and predictable."

I'm yours, now.

"Why do you love the ocean?"
"It's unsteady and unpredictable."

You built a mountain in my heart.

I arose oceans in your spirit.

Opposites

Morning sun and evening star
Never close but never far

A love just starting to bloom
The kind that never needs to pause or resume

One's love is bursting at the seams
The others is quiet yet always softly gleams

Their touch is long awaited
Yet their meetings never go as dictated

Although neither one seem to mind
For to the world they are blind
For all their thoughts and feelings were currently intertwined

A morning sun and evening star
Always leads to a love that's kind of bizarre
Yet to them no other love is on par

Morning sun and evening star
I pray your love goes far

Contradiction

Let's face it, we just aren't meant to be, It's my fault. You are fire and I am water.

You burn brightly. You are energetic, fierce, strong, and warm. You could do anything. You're passionate, a little hot-headed at times, occassionally a bit dangerous, but you can love like no one else.

I am calming. I go with the flow. I'm cool, but not in a good way. My heart is cold. I crash into everything like waves. I engulf things. Anyone that meets me ends up changed for the worse. I am the ocean during a storm. I don't want your fire to be extinguished by my water. So I am letting you go. Get out, before you drown.
