Polar Opposites

by XIII

We are polar opposites You are West, I am East Our views always contradict You have a sweet tooth, I don't like sweets You are white, I am black Not literally, but just in life view Sometimes you're dirty white and I'm clear black It varies from half empty to half full You are an extravert While I am an introvert You like being surrounded by people I'm fine being secluded in the darkest corner You're frank and always true I lie so no one will have a clue But you always know what I hide While I am oblivious if you're really fine You are a cat-lover, I am a dog-lover It rain cats and dogs when we're together You sing the sweetest meow at my whimper I happily wag my tail at your purr We both like music though But we listen to different genres We never even shared on one earphone So sometimes we just endure the silence You are a sadist, I am a masochist You leave bite marks on my skin Whenever you're overwhelmed But I'm really fine with it You like Vampire Diaries and Victoria's Secret While I like TVXQ and anime We'll never agree on a TV show Now who's gonna hold the remote control? You are a clean freak I am not that very clean You're probably next to Godliness While I'm second to the last in that list You are very hardworking, I am lazy While you are being busy I'm being a potato on the couch "Sweep the floor.", you said as the broom flew on my face, "Ouch!" I like food trips But you are on a diet You like to eat healthy I like to eat anything but veggies True, we don't have anything in common Except for the dislike of the black part of the fish's meat But we are familiar of our demons And the how-tos for its defeat Yes, we must be polar opposites And yes, we're like magnets Positive plus negative To each other, we are attracted I am salt, you are pepper And we complement each other We are each others' puzzle pieces Completing each others' emptiness We are yin and yang We cannot live without either one And most importantly, you and I We rhyme
