Balance ***

Balance

I want everything

But I am not afraid of nothing

I want to feel pleasure

But I can bear the pain

I am not afraid to sleep at night

Because I am willing to

Swim in my dreams

And drown in my nightmares

I step into your shoes

While holding onto my perspective

I participate in your culture and beliefs

Without letting go of my own

I understand your values

Without refuting my own

I speak of my success

Without belittling your accomplishments

I dream while I'm awake

I laugh when I cry

I feel nothing

Under pressure

And transcend in nothingness

I embody love, hate, and indifference

I am everything

I am nothing

I am.
