The Unlikeliest Duo

Her

With long brown hair

Golden when caught by the sun

A smile that goes miles

That lights up the stage when she performs

Him

With curly black hair

Glasses

Brown eyes

Hard to reach

But not quite impossible

Hard to talk to

But listens well.

They didn't meet

Because they chose to.

They didn't need each other

Until they met each other

And then

Suddenly

They could not survive

By themselves

On their own

Because

Of 

Destiny

Or was it?

Was it really destiny?

Or was it 

Scrambled dice

Rolled around

Or a cat

Whacking a yarn ball

And it wasn't meant to happen at all?

Regardless

It HAPPENED

They met

Anyway

And they became

A duo

Just

Like

That

  • I

    I am so creative

    So flowing

    Expressive

    And yet so literal

    Precise

    Logical

    I am a walking 80's cliche

    A walking contradiction

  • Contrasting

    I have people who will hold me 

    Love me

    Splash me in sparkles and giggles and emails

    And I have people who will hurt me

    Snark

    Sarcasm

    Never really laughing

    Never really there

  • Take me away

    Just take me away from here

    Whisper stories of starlight and fire

    Water scrambling over rocks

    Iron in my eyes

    Just take me away from here

    To a fantasyland where it's us

    Just us
