Contradiction
So full of deceit
My lifes a contradiction
One day its reality
The next one is fiction
I'm lost without reason
Because I made it so
To increase the complexity
And force myself to grow
I'm so full of life today
But tomorrow it dies
I'm so full of optimism
But a pessimist cries
The two extremes of who I am
Are what I hate to be
I'm so scared to waste it
Then I'm scared to run free
Can I live it day by day
Or do I even dare?
I'm so full of wonder now
But tomorrow, I just wont care
My lifes a contradiction
One day its reality
The next one is fiction
I'm lost without reason
Because I made it so
To increase the complexity
And force myself to grow
I'm so full of life today
But tomorrow it dies
I'm so full of optimism
But a pessimist cries
The two extremes of who I am
Are what I hate to be
I'm so scared to waste it
Then I'm scared to run free
Can I live it day by day
Or do I even dare?
I'm so full of wonder now
But tomorrow, I just wont care

Ah, I've been on both sides of this scenario. All that matters is that you can let both of these emotions live at peace within your mind and that both are uniquely balanced. Lovely work!

I like it, and yes... Every day is a day by day... Sometimes it's a minute to minute... I find that if I try to consume too much of any input be it good or bad I can easily become overwhelmed... Breath, focus on the senses and carry on!
