She and I

She regularly runs, I generally walk

She intently nods, I inherently smile

She grossly gobbles, I quietly savor

She endlessly thinks, I forever do

She tends to exist, I strive to live

Beyond any explanation,

We complete each other

Soulmates, if you would

Not lovebirds nor darlings

But constant companions

Our converse selves happen

To be our greatest teachers

As students, we often conclude

We are indeed our own swine

Whom we cast our pearls before

Our quirks, strengths, and flaws

Radiate our personality excellently

She couldn’t be more different than me

Nor I from her

But that’s what we cherish

A balance lies in our chaos

She’s the salty to my sweet

Together, we oust the notion

That each hand must fit its

Respective glove perfectly

Our variation in thought

Guides us all the more

Through each curveball

Life throws at us

And I’m thankful

For her, my best friend
