Falling into Darkness
Rising into light
I'll never leave
This endless plight
To help my neighbor
To strike him down
In the middle
I just might drown
Looking up at Heaven
Glaring down at Hell
Both of them enchant me...
Their everlasting spell
To foster peace
To go to war
Both of them truly seem
Tempting to implore
Praising generosity
Spreading dreadful hate
Will I be a godly man
Or Evil Incarnate?
Good chi and bad
Yang and Yin
No matter the choices
I'll never win
This is a repost of my POTM submission.
Please tell me what you thought of it.
P.S. The last stanza was a last minute addition. (If anyone thinks the poem would be better off without it, please lemme know)
Thanks to _gwenibe_ for this awesome sig!
