Ambivalent skin
Its crazy how uncomfortable I get talking about my life
Like the darkness in my past will dim my light and hinder my enlightenment
Like I’m admitting defeat If I admit what a fight it’s been
So when people ask me how I am, I’m not a liar but I lie to them
I can’t even talk about you without feeling the need to defend every memory
Because you truly are the perfect cemetery of dark and light
like If you were to be dissected, your chest would eject-
something more akin to the yin yang symbol then the heart or normal men
you are ambivalence wrapped in skin,
like your flesh keeps the moon and sun masked within
waiting to descend as you ascend into the heavens, your two halves finally at peace
each taking equal pieces of this dirt that we call mother earth
and each having equal purpose
For now, I’ll try to show the world what I see beneath your surface
