White or Black..?

Free, Swift, Gentle
Bright, gracious
Positive, attractive
The White glows in beauty.

Captured, complex, rough
Dark, arrogant
Passionate, lustful
The Black swims in pride.

Tied, hidden within
The Black is eager to come out
Confused, lost
The White is in a mystery.

Elegant, classic
Slow movements but steady
Fighting the battle within
The White continues to shine.

Rebellious, hasty
Getting faster and faster
Trying to kill the innocence
The Black struggles to burst out.

The White performs - praises
The Black waits - confident
The door opens
The White meets the Black.

The stage is set
The battle has begun
The White - angry, furious
One blow - the White kills the Black.

New energy, passion, lust
Attitude, complete, perfect
Standing ovation - cheers
The battle is over.

The White smiles innocently in the mirror
The reflection smiles back cunningly
The Black won, took over the White
The Black never died..!
