Soul Paradox
March 9, 2009
Day and night collide
Dusk smothers the earth
Life's tumulus ride
Mixes tears and mirth
Confusion in the mind
Staying true and kind
Love and hate towards all
Midnight shadows on the wall
Silent secrets hidden
They lie deep within
Troubled by all and none
Achieving all, nothing won
Seemingly content
Her visage always glad
A sadden heart is rent
A silent maenad

I love this poem s. kin. mainly cuz it focuses on the happiness and extreme sadness in life. It is also kind of emo.

First off, the title is amazing. it seems like a person caught betwixt two choices, knowing not which to choose.
