Dichotomy

The soft glow of ember, still has the hints

Of the gashing fire it once was

The cold ash lies damp with the soul of the dying flame

I once created a universe which lies today with hopes

Of resurrecting again like a phoenix

I have the serenity of the zephyr

And the rage of the waters

I am the creator

I am the destroyer, too

I am filled with light

I am also the dark moon

I learn and unlearn

I breach

I repress

I resent

I love

I die again today

So, I may live another day
