Opposites attract (?)

The chaos inside me is looking for the calmness of their soul. The abandoned child in me just looks for a home. The darkness lining my skin is reaching out to the light radiating from their eyes and the broken heart is just looking for a space to hide....

Opposites attract isn’t? Darkness falls for light and light falls for the darkness, two missing pieces of the puzzle completing each other.

The heart is a blind person who stands at the beginning of the road with their arms outstretched looking for someone who would hold their hand and walk with them till the end of the line so that they do not fall in the spiralling abyss below.

But the soul, the soul is a dreamer. They dream of twinkling lights and fairy tales. They look into the abyss and imagine it to be a little well filled with hearts and flowers. Holding hands restrictes their movements for they like to dance around without a care. End of the line is the destination but they want to live in the journey forever.

This conflict inside us looks for the solution outside. Someone who would hold our hand and dance with us, decorate the dark tunnel with fairy lights and writes stories on the walls about our journey and still be with us until the end of the line.

- Ishika, still standing at the beginning of the tunnel.
