Black and White

You are poetry.
Reserved yet bold.
We enjoy symmetry,
Always on edge, or so I've been told.

You showed me happiness
on gloomy days,
filled with sadness
Yet, you never showed your face.

Trust, so hard to earn.
Love, so easy to give.
Once broken everything will burn.
Once received, you can never leave.

You're danger.
I'm safety.
Those words gave me nothing but anger,
when you said that to me.

Darling, you are not danger,
you are my safest place.
And I am not safety,
I am one dangerous footrace.
