Alone, I seek out company,
When in a crowd I welcome space.
In heat of the day I long for cool,
When the night chills I look for warmth.
Tired, I gratefully go to bed,
When I’m away I yearn for home.

This text reminds me of the song ‘let her go’ from Passenger:
Well you only need the light when it’s burning low
Only miss the sun when it’s starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you’ve been high when you’re feeling low
Only hate the road when you’re missin’ home
What a great song, thank you for letting me know, Robert
What is at the core of this polarity of “enough?” that we witness in our lives? What prevents us from stopping the pendulum at the exact point of our want?
Looking at the picture accompanying your verse, I wonder about the balance between the sun rays slipping through and the darkness of the clouds.

Thank you for your thoughts which made me reflect on my poem. I live my life mostly in motion. Photography enables me to record a moment in time that I can never return to. One needs to experience the light and the dark to know the difference between the two, Robert
ain’t that the truth 😉
