Duality by iServalan for Tale Teller Club


Duality


She stared at me,

From the sharpness

of the mirror.

Eyes black,

saddened by 

a life of cruel turns.

Her edges were blurred

by the echoes of herself.

the reflection reached out

begging to be touched

to be held as a mother would.

Always there.

These eyes!

following her everywhere she went.

A shadowed face

that wasn't quite her own.



One line cuts through

the center of everything,

she mused.

A boundary where

light and darkness

merge and pull apart.

Where truth whispers

in riddles to its opposite.


Between the black

and the white,

a world unfolds

where form distorts.

but meaning deepens.

where each angle

is a doorway to another

unseen reality.


Each half of her held

a piece of the whole,

a figure drawn

to both sides

a singularity

caught in the paradox

of existing 

everywhere

and nowhere

all at once.


Two faces,

one gaze

a dance in contrast,

a secret held

in the delicate

balance of what is

what was

and what might be
