Opposites Attract

Originally Written: December 6th, 2012

Never taking the same roads
Always crossing the same paths
Never turning down a challenge
Always having each other's backs

Before the sun sets in the summer
After the heat dies down in the fall
Before boys become men and strong
After girls are women and get their menstruals

With each fiber of my being
Without pain and without grief
With every laugh and every flow
Without crying out in relief

Under all the lies and fakes
Above all else that is true
Under the crystal clear sky
Above the ocean which is blue

Nothing else could be clearer
Everything feels joyous with you
Nothing else could take your place
Everything is wondrous and new

Tender when it counts
Tough to protect the weak
Thick-skinned and protective
Thin-lipped and not at all weak

Happy to be together and to be with you
Far from the sadness and loss
Sad that we didn't meet earlier
Near time before our paths cross

Admire the way you care for me
Fawn over the relationship we share
Smile at every kiss we have
Laugh uncontrollably with care
Love is the overall thrill I bear
