October 26, 2018 in poetry

It has to be high to be low
There has to be left to be right
If you keep walking East
You will end up in West
You can’t taste sweetness without
Salty bitter spicy

So you open your arms wide
And you just take it
Take it all
Because it is all the same thing
One can’t be without the other
Sadness and joy do not sit at the opposite ends
You gotta have depth to achieve highest high
You can only grow with the roots that dig this earth

There is no line between love and hate
Thick or thin
One can morph into the other
Just like that
And sometimes it hurts so good
It is all the same

So you just take it
As is
Because it just is
Because you just are

I realized that I have a lot to say (I know some of you are laughing at this statement....) and I do like saying them so I thought I'd start a blog.
