It’s dark in the night, and chaos is spun around: As if somebody wrote it with deep black ink. Looking for light and for justice, at least one blink… Dual, — as should be, — matching those Yang and Yin. Quite the same story seems to appear with souls, — humans are mysteries, each with their rise and falls. “I’m the abyss that’s written with that deep black…” “Not only this,” — I promise to pull you back. White is the light? But those flowers of mourn Written are always with flawlessly pure white ink: Shining, impeccable, making a poison drink. Still, at the same time, those changes are coloured black — home, your wet hair, and the fur of the bold fat cat. It feels so different, — two of us in the flat… Moments, — so many, — are found to be always kept. We’ll write them together: to future and from the start, With black, white, whatever, — and won’t break the line apart.
Notes:
"Dual, — as should be, — matching those Yang and Yin." — Yin and Yang is a fundamental Chinese concept of two complementary and interconnected forces that form a dynamic whole, rather than being opposing entities. The terms literally refer to the "shady" and "sunny" sides of a hill and are represented by a symbol with a black (yin) and white (yang) area, each containing a dot of the opposite color to show their interdependence and inherent potential to transform into each other. This principle is applied to balance in health, the balance of nature, and the creation of the universe through the interaction of these forces.
