Like The Two Sides Of A Coin...

To realize this metaphor, it took me ages...
To accept it, it may take more.

Like the two sides of a coin,
A human nature so disguised
The pretty and ugly combine
In a guise so uncanny yet precise.

Like the two sides of a coin,
We are flipped by chance to see
How many times the goodness will shine
Or how many times the evil may proceed.

Like the two sides of a coin,
The distinguished attitudes are a perfection.
The acceptance of this fact,however, confines
Our heart into one deep confusion.

Like the two sides of a coin,
The pictures depicted always mean,
Something so particular, so fine
About who we are and who else we might be.

Like the two sides of a coin,
A human being so disguised.
Its how I describe this nature of mine
And want every other human to realize!

  1. This is so true..I agree with this perception. That we all are made up of two sides..Most of the times we may find ourselves tracing back to and fro from one to the other.. Both these sides make us whole..although we may strongly adhere to one. In situations that favour us, we may show our good side, but when it comes to facing something unexpected, we tend to move on to the other side of the coin. There's nothing to be ashamed of in acknowledging this, as long as we know who we are and what we ought to be :)

  2. Lot of truth in it :) Love the way its written (Atlast have a feeling that i understood the lines, throughout.) Absolute truth.... We speak each word carefully to the outside world, but fight a lot for small small things with our dear one's. Few things are hard to change and one among those is this......
