envy

day and night's unraveling

By ellie fischerPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Day may have sun, but she craves Night's rest,

Night may have stars, but she yearns for Day's brilliance,

Day may have life, but she craves Night's silence,

Night may have peace, but she yearns for Day's joy,

Day may have light, but she craves Night's mystery,

Night may have serenity, but she yearns for Day's wonder,

Day may have music, but she craves Night's lullaby,

Night may have isolation, but she yearns for Day's acceptance,

Day may have color, but she craves Night's simplicity,

Night may have dreams, but she yearns for Day's memories,

Both move in their own time,

Both follow their own path,

Both listen,

Both see,

Both feel,

Yet, Both do not see their purpose.
