from the heart

I'm not a saint
there's no such thing
we all have black and white in us
and we are all imbalanced in this
some more white
some more black
and some go back and forth between the two
like a pendulum
we are all fighting our own battles
fighting ourselves
fighting the world
and we've all been through so much
we all have our story
trying to make the best decisions we can
with all that we've been through in life
experience creates us
there are no saints
only imbalance
and a pendulum
swinging us through these dark tunnels
until there are no more moments left for us
and off we go
into the ground
or the next
"something"
(I don't want to be eternal)
