Balance Of Life - Good And Bad Poem by Micron Jan

A person maintains a balance of feeling,
Some bring destruction, others bring healing.
Some give great joy, while others bring pain,
Some leave us laughing, some drenched in rain.

A balance of life exists for us all,
We rise to great heights, then inevitably fall.
These are two extremes, ever so vast,
To know one fully, the other must last.

If we never felt the warmth of light,
Darkness would conquer, leaving no fight.
Opposites dwell, always side by side,
Joy and sorrow, in life's ebbing tide.

So when it feels that all is lost,
And life's meaning seems tossed,
Remember, though bad, the good is near,
Have faith, keep trying, and hope will appear.
