Opposites Attract

=================

 

Scorched earth,

Sparks fly.

Wingless birds

Stubbornly die.

 

Summer's snow,

Dry rain.

Night illuminates

Stars drained.

 

Breathless wind

Stealing life,

Fearless death,

Painless strife.

 

Vacant staring

Mirrorless reflections.

Illusionary realities,

Lost directions.

 

Opposites attracting.

Endlessly beginning,

Beginning's end,

Until nothing.

i hadn't posted on this simply because finding coherent thoughts has been a remarkable strain of late. However, seeing this sitting here uncommented on disturbs me.

 

i'm honestly not sure, at this point, that i really understand where you're going with this. And yet, there is much that i appreciate about it the third stanza as a whole and

Illusionary realities,

in particular.

 

i like this. it's an interesting view of sometimes paradoxical opposites - and yet, sometimes those things are the most real, and the most sensible.
