Duality

In truth, each day is a universe in which

We are tangled in the light of stars.

 

Unknown as potential

Mysterious as the night

Spangled in starlight

 

Intangible as the soul

Immeasurable as the future

Unappreciated as spiritual power

 

But…I choose to construct a falsehood

And breathe in it to make sense of life

Eliminate strife

 

Between faith and reason,

Body and soul,

Have a goal.

 

And… I accept the duality

Of days and nights,

Of fate and acumen,

Of gods and humans.
