A Contradiction

Good Evening, 
Today's poem is about the contradictions in relations. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed penning it. 


A Contradiction

The sun in the night sky
The moon in brilliant sun
The joy in your frown
The sadness in your fun 

The dryness of the water
The honesty in the sly 
The coldness in your warmth
The laughter in your cry

The stillness in the movement
The swaying in the rock
The haste in your slowness
The calmness in your shock 

The beauty in the beast
The cloud in empty skies
The feral in your tameness
The truth within your lies

The fullness in the hunger
The ending in the start
The loving in your cruelness
The stillness of your heart

The empty in the fullness 
The bitter in the sweet
The curtness in your softness
The coolness of your heat   

The open in the closed
The lacking in the great
The sadness in your smile
The loving in your hate
