antithesis

our two souls
while bound by blood
differ in many ways

i’m the water that wades and flows
you’re the fire that burns ablaze

you’re a tranquil warm spring day
i am the windy autumn night

my essence pushes people away
while yours sets others alight

your camera seizes beautiful moments
while my poems tell ugly truths

i see your light between these pages
as well as my darkness in these proofs

a sister by bond and birth
our similarities, there are few

you, the antithesis of me
and that is why i love you
