Back and forth and in the middle
06.28.06 (10:33 am) [edit] Back and forth and in the middle There are times As the wheel of life turns; Energy low, Interest nowhere to be found, Seeing life in tones of grey, Only desiring sleep without dreaming. To just forget Rest in oblivion, No stress to bother nor worry. No affliction of the mind, The heart asleep It restless search for a time at peace At other times the world seems to be afire with beauty Energy enough to have interest in all that comes; Time for friends, Life seen in vibrant colors Aglow with excitement and passion Each state moving back and forth One replacing the other, With long period in the flatlands, In betwixt these extremes Perhaps the better place to be; But all are necessary, Each bringing the other into existence By this dance of going back and forth, Up and down, The wheel ever turning, The search continues Seeking balance and sanity Often not found, Though the search interesting Perhaps never to end |
