The Comic and the Straight Man

There are all sorts of sayings
about how things fit together,
“Hand and glove”
"Ham and eggs”.
But how do we fit together,
you and I?

Forget about yin and
yang.
I am the tears that fall
for your pain,
you are the sand that holds my sea,
and I am the front side to your
flip side.

You are the blossom
for which I bud,
I am the rocks that form your rapids.
Throughout the days
and nights of our life,
I am the journey.
You are the first step.
