complementary

we are complementary on the color wheel.
you are green. i am red. 
or is it the other way around?

you tone me down and i fire you up.

i agree with your depth of hue, accepting your tints and pigments. i dispense your base and gloss. we coincide splendidly.

would it be too much to blend?

you think so. sometimes. and i'm too stubborn to volunteer that i want to mix. to shake things up.

so, for now...
we'll just be friendly complementary colors.
