The Winds of Self Silence

There is a Paradox,
And it lies Within,
Confusing, Revealing,
Freeing, and trapping,
My thoughts and feelings.

There is a Paradox,
And it has the power,
To cloud my judgment,
Poison my thoughts,
And Clear the fog.

There is a Paradox,
That allows me,
To live within my self,
Be one with my self,
And not know myself.

There is a Paradox,
That has the ability to,
Protect me, free me,
Leave me vulnerable, entrap me,
Give me hope and crush my dreams,

There is a Paradox,
That lies within,
And its time to accept it,
And perhaps,
Become part of it.

My best friend was having issues and she said she was the "Worlds Biggest Paradox" and then I wrote this.

... I messed up on the title. It is supposed to be Paradox, The winds of self scilence is a different poem.
