Yin And Yang

She was fierce, fearless and bright, like a burning twig,

He was muscular, strong with physique that seemed so big!

She was effervescent, bubbling and chirpy like a bird,

He was composed, unperturbed, so simple like a nerd!

She was rushing & roaring, the leader of her tribe,

His quiet and calm demeanour gave a pleasant vibe!

She wanted to explore, run, travel and unleash,

He wanted silence and tranquillity, full of peace!

She resisted and fought and still was captive,

Maybe to silence her voice was their sole motive!

But he was unaware of her talent, wants and desire,

Too busy with the worldly commitment of his own mire!

Soon she learnt how to let go and forgot her dreams,

Maybe he never asked what she wanted it seems!

Soon they got rid of all the materialistic burdens of life,

Now they were all alone, like husband and wife!

They talked about the weather, the cold and the rain,

What did they lose over the years and what did they gain!

The harsh summers had brought wrinkles over her face,

The weakened knees and painful joints had reduced his pace!

How they couldn't recognize the depths of their lang,

Their union was something like the Chinese yin and yang!

Now it was the time to relive their dreams again,

To recapture the moments which went in vain!

She again felt alive with a fresh new gush inside,

He too promised to remain always by her side!
