Things are not always what they seem.

Day may seem like night,

When the sky goes black

and the sun can’t be found.

Night may seem like day

When the moon is a full golden orb

Casting long shadows across the lawn

Under a canopy of 10,000 flickering stars.

Sometimes words can heal,

when they are hard,

When they don’t feel good as you hear them.

Sometimes they can hurt

while creating great beauty as you listen.

Sometimes love can exist

Unspoken.

And sometimes the most ardent declarations of love

Feel empty.

Sometimes, there is more in less.

And less in more.

Sometimes, when you are most confused,

You find the most clarity.
