Dislike forces pull me in opposing directions,
tearing my core and ending my ego like malicious fists.
A surge begins to boil and rise in the pit of my stomach,
upwards through my throat and erupting out of my eyes.
The furious anguish slingshots my soul deeper
into my own mind, and aloft in a violent sea of my own thoughts.
I begin to see things as the really are.
No more black and white,
or the confusions brought
by the thousand shades of grey ranging between.
Complete clarity of the unblinking eye,
sends a foreign calm to the heart of me
My soul comes ashore on the sands of a brilliant beach.
The dark clouds begin to part.
light from above can be felt once more.
forces which bound me become one,
with those that had ripped me apart.
Exhaling for the first time calming notion of calamity
doubled by the invigorating spirit of youth,
propel me back to my former disposition.
