"I am always in hope of making a discovery... to express the love of two lovers
by a marriage of two complementary colors, their mingling and their opposition,
the mysterious vibrations of kindred tones."
~Vincent Van Gogh





It's true I've always thought of you
in shades of midnight blue -
          dark as twilight,
          deep as the sea

I'd paint a picture of us
and for me I'd use the most golden of oranges -
          bright as fire,
          warm as the sun

And there we'd be,
complementary

More vibrant and richer together
than we could ever be on our own

For only in these specific matches
do we find such radiance and purity,
and are able to shine
with such intensity
and grace
