The real trouble is that it isn’t
Pain exists only because it doesn’t
You wouldn’t know if I told you so
And we into ourselves won’t grow
Without a sound you said a lot
You took nothing and gave it back
You are so brave, I have no will
We crossed a line, standing still
Sending messages without words
We become whole in pieces again
In the emptiness you make me full
Illegally, you follow the rules
Resolution transforms to conflict
Answers become new mysteries
I follow where you never led
We turn around to move ahead

Has anyone told you that your mind works upside-down? I like this a lot, as I have always been fond of paradox. And I am impressed that you've managed to keep a coherent message in such an abstract setting. Well done!

Extremely unique and definitely paradoxical. This is definitely a different outlook, but interesting.

Good write. Not just paradoxical, but a yin yang kinda thang as well. As in; "the ebb and the flow, of the wax and the wane, of the here and the there, of the this and the that,
dimension and by extension, need I mention, that it got my attention, pulled me in, where I found out, what I now know I never knew. A little more 'bout me through you. By pictures drawn with words, that read instead of spoken were still heard. That may sound seriously absurd, but sometimes contradictions
agree to disagree, so what lies between might be seen for exactly what it is or isn't.
Why? Why not?Sometimes it is best to question answers that may belong to an entirely different question. Sometimes I even remember things that I forgot. Sometimes I forget to remember.If I could only remember to forget! What was I saying?
Attacking a problem from both sides at the same time will often shake loose some insights that would have got lost in the shuffle otherwise. I'm not making light of a dark situation, that you shed light on by point-counterpointing the thing into submission. I was just stream of consciousing the mental word gristle that defies deciphering except when you turn the words, thoughts, and phrases that come to mind over and over and from side to side. For meanings hide in plain veiw, amongst the word gristle, I like paradox as writing excercise tool as well. Never expecting anything much and ocassionally finding a turn of phrase that will fit nicely somewhere. Yes at times Contradictory can be Complimentry....Also the reverse isn't always the opposite. An example: All pickles are cucumbers, But not all cucumbers are pickles.
Talk to you on the round-a-bout R&R

Wow, (having had those bouts of " illogical sanity" too) I really love the way you wrote this!
"I follow where you never led" had me thinking, "Don't follow me. I'm lost too." ;-)
You really do have an inspirational mind.
