My Compliment
How does the day match the night ?
Opposites of shining bright
one dark, other light
of two
How does the ocean meet the shore?
does one want the other more?
one rich, one poor
of two
How does a tree reach the sky?
does it want to be a bird and fly?
one low, one high
of two
Of one there’s an equal opposite
and I met mine when our lips met
But his world is oh so different
Us two.
he is winter grey to my sunshine,
he’s the riverside of my thirst dry,
He’s as great as good could ever get,
He’s my compliment.
He is the energy to my simple lazy
He is sane to all my little crazy
He’s the greatest man I’ve ever met,
He’s my compliment.
How does left and right coexist?
instead of fighting, they assist
hold hands, make fists
of two
How do animals find their mate?
do you think they knew their love was fate?
they search, they wait
of two
How do words work in a paragraph
would mine make you cry or make you laugh?
a page, or a half
of two
