The two wolves
A pack, a lone wolf
Crowded homes, empty paths
In this spirit, in this soul
Grace and mischief
Holding to love, clinging to hate
Repetition, ongoing adventures
The barrier opens, flowing shadows
Selfless and naive, greed and power
The laws are placed, the rules are bent
A future comes, a past remains
With sun, with moon
The smile, a glare
This coat of white, the black mask
Always open, eternally closed
Patience consumes, rushed with action
One unharmed, yet still bruised
Running, hiding, bravery and courage
One in shadow, one in starlight
Gentle sleep, awake in fear
Burning summers, freezing winter
The Spring of life. The dying Autumn
A whisper, a scream
Bound by balance, raised by chaos
The other half, that's what completes us.

My To Be Read List
I have been taking some time away from writing. I haven't forgotten about Vocal, the truth is I just have been too busy pursuing other things to write online and honestly, my little family and I just had a really hard month between the flu and a weird eye infection/cold circulating our house. I'm currently sipping some warm peppermint tea because my throat is sore.
