love.
and lies.
two different words, 
two different worlds, 
but both tugging the same spectrum called life.

irony

the use of words to express something other than or the opposite of the literal meaning.

we live amidst contradictions.

we stand in a world donned in black and white,

watching the sun shape day and night,

feeling the ridges between woman and man, 
tracing the creases between sea and sand.

we live as contradictions.

the people we trust still betray us,
and the people we betray still trust us.

the people who yearn to eat, starve, 
and the people who yearn to starve, eat.

the people we love still hurt us,
and the people we hurt still love us.

we are contradictions.

amazing aesthetic by espressoenthusiast

CONTRAST

the state of being strikingly different from something else in juxtaposition or close association.

to the dreamers and to those who live in reality. 
to the believers and to those who don't believe. 
to the lovers and to those who hate.

Happy reading.
