Me vs. You
A petal in the rose garden
A gunshot in Iraq
A drop of water in a massive wave
A dream in Sleeping Beauty's endless night.
An orchid in a concrete crack
A vibrant shooting star in an inky, cloud filled night
The kiss to wake Snow White
A smile in a world of anger
Sunlight in darkness
Love amongst apathy
Tears aside peace
Death within life
You ask me;
"Which am I, and what are you?"
Are we not both?
The sweet note from a piano nestled within the symphony
One blink of an eye in a lifetime
A strand of cotton in a blanket
But also
The first drop of rain in a drought
The innocence in a child's eyes
A compliment given instead of an insult thrown?
One without the other is not possible.
To force fame upon yourself is invisibility.
Therefore;
We must be the moon
As well as the sun.
