Duality

Another poem from my journal.

Life or Death.

Hope or Despair.

Fiction or Reality.

Hero or Villain.

White or Black

Opposites are often synonyms, infinitely connected and interwoven.

The duality of a mirror is ever constant and prowling.

One cannot die without first being alive.

One cannot be alive and avoid dying.

Oh lay upon the duality of a mirror

Despair is only possible when Hope is lost.

Hope is only possible when there is something to despair about.

Oh lay upon the duality of a mirror

Fiction is often filled with more truth than any biography or documentary.

And reality lays bedridden with lies.

Oh lay upon the duality of a mirror

How can one determine what is good, and what is not.

Murdering a tyrant is still murder, but it can save plenty, but if one does it for power...

Oh lay upon the duality of a mirror

Lay upon a mirror and see, all the white and black turn to green.

Even colour if it's true, can hide and lie away from you.

Oh lay upon the duality of a mirror, and find the vague duality true.
