We #match
Because we’re opposites
You push
I pull
You say “fuck it!”
I say “let’s think about this”
You are social
People scare me
You lift us into the air
I stop us floating off

Our contests
Our matches
Ignite sometimes
Your will
My will
Never serious
Our demonstrations of trust
You can give
I can take
Or vice versa
Because what good is being a beacon
On the shoreline of each others lands
If we aren’t also rocks
To crash our waves against?
