opposites attract

my favorite color was black

dark like the night sky

engulfing all the pain in this world

erasing all the things I didn't want to see

.

but you said your favorite was white

clean like the sheets on your bed

the start of a new canvas

the pureness of being able to evolve into anything

.

my favorite season was summer

reminds me of the period where I was free from responsibilities

careless, reckless, young

everything was temporary and beautifully fake

.

but yours was winter

it reminded you of warm living rooms

of homecooked meals, the checkered blanket

loving, comforting, warm

it reminded you of the ties with your family

.

I look at you and try to find myself in you.

in your past. in your present. and in your future.

yet, there is nothing that I can relate to you in.

.

like yin and yang, I found my missing half with you.

and I hope you feel the same way about me too
