Inertia

Two entities exist, same but opposite in nature

Happily existing in parallel dimensions of colorless bliss

One brings light, the other heralds the darkness

~~

One rules the day, the other the shadowy underworld

They are a beautiful dance of Black and White,

Two entities exist, same but opposite in nature

**

They sway in steps of dark and bright,

A rhythm reminiscent of our days and nights,

One brings light, the other heralds the darkness

~~

Footfalls we once traced in white shades of joy

Now buried in depths of black hued sorrow,

Two entities exist, same but opposite in nature

**

Yesterday’s past may haunt our dreams,

Tomorrow’s future we gladly await - Anticipating...

One brings light, the other heralds the darkness

~~

Gone will be the black of shadows, deep and wide,

Where hidden fears once whispering, hid.

Two entities exist, same but opposite in nature

One brings light, the other heralds the darkness

Villanelle

The white of hope, so free, so vast - disappears

Now are but dreams which take melodic flight

A waltz between nightmares of highs and lows.

~

There, where our every turn and twirl bestows

Moments so pure, yet fleeting to our sight-

The white of hope, so free, so vast - disappears.

~

Life’s dance of black embraced by white.

Each step with grace, each balance serene,

A waltz between nightmares of highs and lows.

~

Let contrasts birth sweet harmony.

From White to Black to Fiery Carmine-Scarlet

The white of hope, so free, so vast - disappears.

~

Like a fiery red, gushing volcanic geyser,

Let life leap heavenward...burning crimson-red,

A waltz between nightmares of highs and lows.

~

Searing through time and space for those bold enough

To drill through the rock of inertia.

The white of hope, so free, so vast - disappears.

A waltz between nightmares of highs and lows.
