Perfectly Mismatched

We are a perfectly mismatched set.
We share contradictory alliances in Peace
We conquer complimentary foes in War

You quell the unnerving anxiety that haunts me
And I haunt the quelling worry that unnerves you.

My emotional lows keep your mental highs grounded, well-balanced, and sane
While your emotional ups grant my mental downs the conviction, confidence and trust needed to take flight. 
.
May the discrepancies we harmonize bring the peculiarities identified by our inner circle  
because they misunderstand 
the eccentricities that keep us identically opposite.

We will thrive in eternal impermanence, blissful in our gloom, 
satisfied with our greed 


We are a perfectly mismatched set
