Sugar and Oil

She was so sweet
So very neat
He was so tough
So very rough
Most of their close friends thought
That it was all for naught
That it would never work
Because he was a jerk

It seemed that way for a while
They each had their very own style
But Father Time knew what he was doing
For, while together they would be showing
What each could be teaching the other
So they became as sister and brother
Next moving on to a deep, true love
Which they both knew came from up above

The story of thine own life, bro? If so, well done. :)

I guess it's no good. NOT autobiographical. Strictly fictional. Sorry.
