Science refers to love,
Ah - love,
As nothing more than chemicals.

So then I am just a chemical imbalance,
with my head against your doorway
as I call out to you through your door.

You are a thermal detonation
of a chemical explosive -
inviting me into your arms.

And we, you and I,
are nothing more than a chemical spill -
burning holes into your bedroom floor.
This wasn't originally my idea. A friend wrote one original poem and let me play around with it, resulting in two different poems. (original poet: Eric Khong)
