Light V. Dark

Ying and Yang

By Sender Jeannestal Published 2 years ago 1 min read

The dark, some may say hard to peek,

But I will tell you it’s heart beats, clicks, warmth from the bodies aura, that you should seek, because there’s peace in defeat.

In the darkness you can hear the smallest creep, sharp twigs beneath your feet,

Smells from the ripest trees, feel danger because danger can breathe, danger is sharp, danger smells rotten, danger can never be mistaken for a tasty treat. For in the darkness you can find peace in the comfort of your own defeat, knowledgeable in ones misery, for this knowledge would bring experience and experience shall bring peace.

The Light, some may say it’s all they need,

But light can’t find peace,

Light is too sure, light won’t seek,

Light won’t creep, light won’t quit,

Light won’t heal, lights’ not pure,

For lightness, danger is friendly and sweet,

Light won’t quit so danger can’t defeat,

But in order to get peace light must know defeat, for defeat will bring knowledge, and knowledge shall bring experience and experience shall bring peace.

I say light is oblivious.

Darkness can’t exist on its own, but Light exist because darkness lives, Light is dependent on the knowledge and experience from darkness in order to stay peacefully.
