Strange Paradox

I have been rummaging through a file of my writings and found a bunch of poetry. Thought I would share a couple here. This one was published somewhere but for the life of me I can't remember where! haha shows you my organizational skills right there.

Strange Paradox

strange paradox

one minute peaceful

then raging

one moment calm

then screaming

why must I be

these two

when I only want one

night takes over dawn

and drowns it with black

thoughts words fears

spiraling down ever darker

light seeps in

and floods the sky

blinding my soul

hope joy strength

sustaining Life in me

the dark is always waiting

I will cling to the Light
