you are white
i am black
side by side
back to back
you are my self-image necessary
i am your alter-ego mandatory
in perfect contrast, we are one
in balanced symmetry, we are one
but me, you cannot be
my place, you cannot take
you, I cannot be
your place, I cannot take
you are my double, opposite
i am your shadow, requisite
you are fair, clean, conspicuous
i am dark, secretive, mysterious
and yet,
no game is played
without you and me!
- between you and me is game.
- between light and dark is delight.
- between ivory and Ebony is mystery.
