it is not the content of what you write about that makes literature enticing; it is the emotion you place into it

Light grows within me
Darkness lingers within me
A black heart beats within me
A white soul floats within me
Water flows steady within me
A fire burns bright within me
A hate runs deep within me
While love resides within me
A predictable sun sets within me
A mysterious moon rises within me
All of these things; the battle within me
Creating friction and a war within me
