I wonder what life would be
without the opposite sides
could happiness live,
without the existence of sadness
love without hate, I wonder?
The hardship which progresses in life
negative or positive, which would claim,
The tracks made along the way
She gives back, what's put in
a cause and effect
could she be the definition, or the concept,
of action or deed?

An educated growth,
from birth til death
obstacles come to life,
by the very first breath
a given to keep up or give up
gifts challenges
the beauty of life
it may never
but it never hurts to try

this was inspired by a friend of Facebook. What I read made me believe that she's a great writer and I hope I did this justice, if not then I apologize

I wonder what life will be if there is no ice as there is fire, if there is no day as there is night and if there is no man as there is woman. Brilliant poem you wrote, I have a feeling 'you did this justice'.

This poem at first had me curious as to who she was? But in the end you rapped it up very well

Life is all about opposites and striking a balance - good one.
