Perfect Counterparts 

​

I'm eclectic but your receptive so it works,

I'm a package so I hope you're not just with me for the perks.

Yeah, I can be shallow but I can also get deeper than deep.

We call that balance.

So the next time I take your mind to mars, 

don't look at me like I'm some puzzle or challenge.

Just stay with me.

I know my stories jump, my mind wanders and my words can be plenty.

But I've never gotten the review that I've left someone feeling empty.

A beautiful mess is what I am, like a mosaic,

Complex but essential to life like my acids are nucleic.

composed of words that'll make you react, they'll make those knees jerk.

I'm dynamic but your eyes are panoramic, so it works.
