The Light and the Dark

Giving away love

red, white, and black

it keeps growing inside me.

A slow river, life moves to end

reminders of its head

blind and malleable memories.

We swing in sync

while clouds and rain

mix night into day.

Darkness; I can't see

Light blinding, but still

it binds us all together.

I give my love

more comes my way

embraced, we form light and dark.

Light twisted into shadow

I give it to you

and we give it back.

Irish demons

Catholic saints

We tangle into a pile of God.

I love the last stanza. It's like a brawl in heaven

[Mark]

ya, 'a brawl in heaven' exactly! :)

You've created another shadow poem, I like it:

Darkness; I can't see
Light blinding, but still
it binds us all together.

I give my love
more comes my way
embraced, we form light and dark.

I liked the jarring ending as well.
