A place of destruction and despair
But at the same time
One of hopes and rejoicing
A land where death and life
Are one
A land where water and earth
Collide
Unseeingly real
Yet imagined
The rivers turn black and red
And fade away
Only to reappear on the other side
The petals that fall
Only to cause a ripple in time
A wave in motion
A place where we walk
A race born with greed
And grow into kindness
Myths and legends that swirl in a spiral
Beliefs and hopes clash
The moon and sun
A mere reflection of the other
Ones that shine
Regardless of darkness or light
And yet a balance
However unstable it may be
One that blindfolds some
And enlightens others
Things continue with the ribbon in hand
Never to cease
Even if fallen
Never to stop
Even if broken
Deprived in all
Taken in any
