-Love,
So painful
Yet so pleasing.

-Pain,
So pronounced
Yet so quiet.

-Happiness,
So wonderful
Yet so faraway.

-Sadness,
So lonely
Yet so close.

-Light,
So giving
Yet so reminding.

-Dark
So frightening
Yet so forgetful.

-Birth,
So beautiful
Yet so hurtful.

-Death,
So hurtful
Yet so beautiful.
