In balancing of the opposites a harmonious state is the end result;
one can then see beyond oneself which some people call the occult.
Through self-mastery in one's life comes a certain transcendence
and any individual thus blest gains a unique level of independence.

My mind:
The negater
Telling me to smile;
Telling me I'm not worth anything

My soul
Filled with light...
And then darkness
It's overwhelming

My heart
Once full of love
Now full of hate
So disappointing

My being
Once whole,
Now in pieces
Save me from my grief

Where is the rain, where the sun always shines?
Where is the sun when the sky is overcast?

Where are you when I need you most?
Where aren't you when I want you not?
You will not see the smile turning upside down/You will see just a smile waver at the corners of my mouth

You will not hear my screams of despair/You will only hear a fake laugh

You will not see  my fist slammed into a wall in anger/You will see a small gesture. A wave, nod or shrug

You will not hear my begs and pleas for explanation/You will hear nothing

You will not see my tears filled with pain and fear/You will see tired eyes looking for rest

In a life constantly moving there are only so many perfect moments. The pale blue sky holds the remorse of every soul ever with drawn from our everyday life and it’s the moment that the sun and the moon lay distant from each other, yet still apart of the same sky, neither light nor dark but a symphony of an in between that we are just for a second able to witness the soft song that the wind blows, holding within it the memories of words. If I were able to witness a perfect moment in our busy lives I would pick this one, the one where I am able to feel your heart beat and your relaxed breath. It is that I am able to sit so contently in your arms, as if the moon and the sun and all the planets aligned creating a lasting moment of euphoria it is that I am able to gaze upon your face and see another galaxy, and know with the deepest part of my heart that you are all I’ve ever wanted and so much more.

Are you always so perfect at everything?
And they say opposites attract
So perhaps we do.
Haha, what does this imply?

Run and run and run in place
All our efforts
Are such a waste

When we work
In such simple opposition
We cannot help but
Let go of firm position

Release
Your grasp upon yourself
Silence your cry for another's help
We have choked out our inner peace

There is nowhere
Safe left
When you have two people
Living in your head
**Title is archaic Greek.

I don't know.
I keep trying to be two people at once. It's not working very well.
Sorry this *****. Writing isn't going well at the moment either.

Opposites never so much the
Same, one warmth, one cold
Each a measurable effect on
The other.

Heat melts cold, then steams
Of passion unfold, where once
was rage, now soothed upon
By cold calm words. That breath
Relief upon radiating heat, now
Cooled but not hot neither cold.

Difference is not always negative
Not always bad, from difference
A new respect can be had. one
Warmth, one cold, but never more
the same as when love unfolds.
