Complimentary

So stubborn we disagree frequently
leading to the hard question ‘Why bother?’ 
Pressing forward is not always easy,
it takes so much work to stay together.

Red roses express love yet possess thorns,

A storm slowly brewing his side eye warns,
passionate in love and war I’m not tame.

entwined bodies drowning while fully immersed,
two forbidden lovers in the night do connect.

Selfish lust with broken

Complimentary

A candle is not a candle
without that string that 
runs inside it
An crystal earing is not

A school is not a school
without teachers or 
students
All things are
