Opposite Hearts

does it require a opposite to bring definition
as light is defined by dark
and death defines life
thriving in this world together 
but as opposites 
giving to each other the definition of its being
am i light?
am i life?
do i need a opposite to be me?
do i need a conflicting force 
a unconnected being therefore
creating a connection through our differences
do i live only to find my opposite
my soul mate
or can i define myself
with my own heart and soul
without this opposing heart 
i'm supposed to find somewhere in this world
can i stand on a mountain and scream to the heavens
scream to myself
that i am me
alone with out a soulmate
and that's it
and thats all i need
