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 scroll through the options

    Endless rows

    And rows

    And rows

    Of smileys

    And animals

    And faces

    And people

    And things.

    I scroll through the multicolored hearts

    The laughing faces

    I believe

    That everything in the universe

    Has an opposite but equal

    Double.

    A counteract

    A balancing factor.

    Like how 1 has -1

    And peanut butter has jelly

    Like that.

    Music

    Is something

    So beautiful

    So simple

    So sweet

    And yet it carries so much power

    Of the composer

    The band

    The conductor
