Between Joy and Sorrow

 
I have built strong walls
only to shut myself in
i feared the winds of fate
but, they blew from within
 
I knew i could not escape
my turn was drawing in
the dark clouds inside me
are always being growing
 
So, i am my own fate
all that happens depends
when my spirit is down
my weak fate,  then tends..
 
But, then i try to maintain
a permanent self-control
when bitter winds blow
i won't let my sails fall
 
I will pull up the veil
head to the positive pole
the winds that drove me off
were not the lethal toll
 
And my eye that sees life
from a one corner of mind
with my both eyes i will see
that destiny can be mine
 
I can change a hard life
when taken from two poles
know that life is duality
joy and sorrow are roles
