    Paradox

    How can I love you yet hate you so much?
    Why does the silence cause such a fuss?

    How can you give something you'd never take?
    Why do perfect hearts always break?

    How does a sin cover a sin?
    Why must it end so it can begin?

    How do you protect by taking a life?
    Why must happiness cause such a strife?

    How are the cowards always so brave?
    why does a savior need to be saved?

    How can you say the righteous are wrong?
    why does a short life take so long?

    How do immortals lay down and die?
    Why must the truth be such a lie?

    How does a scream settle the noise?
    Why do options not give us a choice?

    How can receiving nothing be such a gift?
    Why does war show not who's right but who's left?

    How can a flaw contain no mistake?
    Why does a heartless man still feel a heartache?

    How can a firm grip slip right through?
    Why must sloth be in the work taht we do?

    How do we suffocate on the air that we need?
    Why is it compelled to destroy what's retrieved?

    How can you measure the love of a mother?
    Why do we grab hold to let go of each other?

    How can the living take root in a grave?
    Why are the kings the ones to be slaves?

    How can darkness create such benevolence?
    Why does death fall upon those of the innocent?

    For one so young, you must have gone through something very earnest and painful to have come up with these questions. We all must go through these bad times and questioning times to make us who we are. You have a great gift.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
