The Ying and Yang Within My Heart

Here I am without a moonshine in a room painted in black and white Cursed and Blessed Abandoned Caressed I smile ... I cry... With two halves of my brain interwined. Hush -Hush I Silence the voice Hush -Hush I do not have a choice Do not sing a song or Do play along Hush-Hush Hush-Hush. The yang within me still swirling with passion The ying shadows my heart Be gentle Be strong Be right Be wrong Depart or Belong. Cursed and Blessed Abanoned Caressed I smile... I cry... Rain is falling in his front porch Clouds have covered my sky Sunset thoughts have drifted with stream flow Dreams have shifted into sleepless nights. But Suddenly Was it meant to be? Outside my window paper -lanterns rise -up high All emotions are turning in cartwheels As time keep passing by. So very soon a new dawn will follow All alone I face it's light I feel its warmth Its rainbow colours Once again a fairy spell will make our lives shine bright. The ying within me still swirling with passion The yang shadows my heart Be gentle Be strong Be right Be wrong Depart or Belong Silence my voice or sing me a song

Oh my Charmaine, this was beyond amazing. You have bled on this screen, deep thoughts and endless yearnings. I can tell you when I read this line, "Outside my window paper -lanterns rise -up high" my heart melted. There is something so romantic about paper lanterns to me, soft and colorful and swaying in the evening breeze. I am so sorry you are off your feet recuperating but if that means more beautiful poetry liked this, well...I still want you to get better, just keep writing...please.
