THE POSITIVE THE NEGATIVE

POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE

The opposites
Always will attract
One man said ?
He was in love
Only in his mind
Are opposites shared

Was he the positive
In love he gave
He  is the positive
His soul,  positively a slave
He the positive
Wanting all
His dream made

What greater
Chase pursuing
An  opposite
In play
Like a solider 
A battle of night and day

So with positive thoughts
Added to negatives
Shame
Thinking optimistic
Can he get the  negatives
To change

His  optimistic
Thoughts
Are just as negative
The same
Opposites will not attract
It’s all a game

Not one time was [your poetry , your poem or this poem] wrote in these comments . And to add [see how I use words like your comments ! and not , you wrote this or you say noting much] . Question Jess ? were in these comments is [ your] help ? What is [your]evaluation that this poems needs . Their is not even and example , to help my poems improve. Jess did you , and yes I said you ? forget about this . What did you think of my title? [My title in this poem] How was my language use? [ My language in this poem] What did you think of the rhythm or pattern or pacing? [ About this poem ] How does this theme appeal to you? How was the beginning/ending of the poem? Is the internal logic consistent? Press
