Ambivalence

I remember sitting
And staring into the dark
Nothing surrounds me
Other than the sound of mother nature
The waves hitting on each other
Like two sisters who had a quarrel so bitter

I remember looking
And seeing the stars shine
How far, yet they could twinkle
Their bright light
Contrasting with the dark night
The brief second of peace and calm
I could cherish through a life of storm

I remember feeling 
And saying to myself
Nothing beats nature
She invites and warns
The truth of beauty she teaches
Not too far, my love...
You do not know the dangers of her depth

I remember thinking
This is her power
She makes you fall in love
Leaves you with wishes and imaginations
You never know when you're lost
In your dreams, flooded with thoughts
But in your state of ambivalence
She's the one
Who makes you remember.
