Dark Horses of Affliction

What’s happiness without sadness
What’s strength without weakness
What’s precious without worthless
What’s bright without darkness

What’s perfect without flaw
What’s anchor without jigsaw
What’s legal without outlaw
What’s despise without outlaw

What’s hope without haze
What’s accomplish without chase
What’s condemn without praise
What’s austere without ablaze

What’s harsh without subtle
What’s comfort without trouble
What’s infallible without stumble
What’s approve without grumble

What’s withhold without dispense
What’s certainty without suspense
What’s humility without pretence
What’s reckless without repentance

What’s speech without silence
What’s harmony without defiance
What’s purpose without insignificance
What’s destiny without coincidence

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
