Positively Negative

Why is there always a war between light and dark?

A constant bloodshed

Of the pessimistic

And optimistic


I used to hate the sanguine

I used to adore the insane mind

I had an epiphany

That pulled me across the line


The spirit is appealing

Bright sunshine is a lovely feeling

The wistful folks

Dragged me to the center


Now I’m walking on the shoulders

Of a positively negative mind

Witnessing the cynical

Perceiving the utopian

I'm not really into poetry, but my teacher made me do the uncomfortable.  I'm working on more poetry and becoming used to it.
