Opposition
My brown eyes gaze into your blues,
Staring up despite my shoes,
Smile dominated by your grin,
Stubble scratching silky skin,
Earnest while you are easygoing,
Our differences are ever showing,
A coat for me, T-shirt for you,
T-Rex versus Blink 182,
Old Converse shoes the mud conceals,
Reflected in my New Rock heels,
A bag in which my life to squeeze,
A pocket for your cash and keys,
You like spirits, I drink juice,
We order both and call a truce,
And bow in mutual submission,
United in our opposition.
