We Are Like Pendulums

Within a well inside us
Deep feelings brew
Stirring and raging constantly
Bubbles into the surface
Spills as emotions that are overwhelming at times
 
We are like pendulums
Always swaying in the constant flow of life
Pulled into and out of the vortex of our own chaotic feelings
 
Like the tides at sea
Our feelings rise and ebb
Between elation and tranquility
Sometimes euphoric other times depressive
 
We keep swaying between two poles, two extremes of emotional roller coaster  
That makes us feel life in all its colors
Kaleidoscopic and monochromatic hues
 
In this maddening feelings
We find our true selves  
That we can't see in the calm state
It takes a little madness to get a taste of life
To feel the sweetness and pangs of love
To find sublimity in the mundane
 
Normalcy is a plateau where everything is usual and common
Where your heart is in cage  
Unable to break free
Afraid to soar and fly
