An Inspired Poem: Playing with Paradox

Playing with paradox, a game of the mind

A dance of contradiction, where truths entwine

Up is down, and down is up

The more you give, the more you cup

Silence speaks louder than words

The sweetest sounds are those unheard

The strongest are those who show their weakness

In vulnerability lies true uniqueness

The present is a gift, that's why it's called the present

But in memories and dreams, we find our true essence

In giving, we receive, and in taking, we lose

A paradoxical cycle, that we must choose

Playing with paradox, a dance of the mind

A beautiful journey, where answers we find.
