You know you are a parasite
But I will let you feed off of me
Sometimes I desire the poison
And a little dose is healthy now and then
Because what I have is also yours
And I live for you, I eat for you, I survive for you
Your primary host
They say you will destroy me from the inside out
But I lured you in, I consciously made you part of me
You did not come uninvited, and that is the point
You came willingly
So I feed myself you as you nourish yourself through me
A symbiotic relationship
For I do not go where I am not wanted
Through good and bad times we (d)evolve together
A true matrimony
Now forever covalently bonded
Noel Irion Mar 2011
Roses sing softly through whispering petals,
Gently stroking upon each others' own.
Similar is the sound, when all else rests,
Of sweet breath escaping lips royally throned.
I wish she would take me home.

Sunset, sunrise,
Chasing the moon girl, no surprise.
How long i have longed to catch her eyes,
Baby blue by nature, baby blue in mine.
Gold embroidered galaxies tells the false man lies.

Heart beats fast,
Bass drops low.
Twisting, turning, head spinning, falling.
How did we get here? Where do we go?
Covalently bonded, nowhere is everything now.

Goodbye
I guess
What more is there to say
Farewell
See you later
Live long and prosper.
I think I'll miss this actually
I'll miss some of you quite terribly
And I will miss each and every one of you at least a little bit.
Because thats what you do
When people you've known
For five whole years of your life,
Suddenly just
Aren't there anymore
You miss them
And you know what... that is alright.
Because I know we're too old or too cool to really like school
And I don't know about you
But I'm sorry for me it has just lost the magic.
Maybe it has something to do with the amount of
Homework we're set.
Or maybe its just because unlike primary school
You don't have a sand pit.
But, I am only sixteen
So what do I know.
But we should still say goodbye
Because what this place has taught us,
Goes far beyond just finding X
In mathematical equations
And yes I might still not know how to calculate titration
But far more friendships have been made here
Than chemistry sets broken
And we've formed bonds,
Not just covalently
We don't share atoms
But we all share similarities
And I've learnt right from wrong
As well as metaphor from simile
I know definition of friendship
But I will still forget how to spell necessity
I've learnt the truth about equality
Not just from R-E or P-C-E
But from how I treat Y-O-U and how you treat me
Out there on the playground
There have been fought more battles
Than every single one we're taught about in history
But I've learnt how to read the signs
Admittedly not always effectively
About when its time to shut up
Because its often mapped out
On peoples faces like geography
And I've learnt that the suns gravitational pull
Is not the only thing that causes us to revolve
Because we spin around each other
Not always touching,
Not always interacting
But for five long years
We've spun together
And that means something.
I wrote this for my leavers day this year and it was originally entitled 'Goodbye' but then I realised that I'd already written a poem called goodbye and so 'Five Years' was the next best fit. There is also a video of me reading this aloud at my leavers assembly floating around somewhere on youtube, and if you're really determined you could probably find it...
I've always had my eye on you...  
Did you get that? Ion?  
It's not like you're all that beautiful,  
It's just all the good ones Argon.

But like Oxygen and Potassium, you're OK  
And you'll find I can be quite caring.  
I'd really like to bond with you  
But not covalently. I don't like sharing.  

I've dropped an electron, but I'm feeling positive,  
I'm prepared for living large,  
Maybe you're feeling a little negative  
But at least on dates there'd be no charge.

I know that you're oh so Noble  
So I've not much need for tact;  
No matter what I say or do,  
You probably won't react.

This happens periodically  
And shows no signs of ceasing  
My face is going exothermic,  
My enthalpy increasing.

I find you so sublime  
Though I hope you don't disappear  
I know together we'd be golden -  
A! U! Get over here!

My soul is blemish-free  
So I'm making no apology  
I know that we've got chemistry -  
But I'd love to have biology!

What is but should not be
         passed on is
                War
so when we coil aggressively into a
       double helix bond
             covalently
If we think of Love and Peace
        while reproducing
               Would
our child be a new generation
           without the
               instinct
         inborn to ****?

i’m awakened by the
climb of the chime of your
mirror bell as you zip
above me like the shadows
of the golden metal that echo
in my ear.

but it seeps so strangely under
your clenched fists, as i watch
you pedal and ascend
one knee after another,
as sweat condenses on the
handles, and streamers sputter in the wind.

all i recognize you feel is blur,
and the substance we need
to pedal, fill your mouth and
choke muscle and tendon,
as our cartilage crammed turbines rise and fall
like the pant of your lung as you tricycle
away from the choker covalently
bonded to the first of all that matters.

yet we giggled - we snorted,
while printing the memory
on your chip as the disc swerved away.

rue had let you run over my
toes with our red.
you rose and fell over
the unseen ivory bones; and i pleaded for
a motion of  cyclical squeeze more
potent than a chip and a
wheel gone awry.

such as our disc shattered
in two, i stooped on our
step with palm under arch,
limp from the stubs of nails
that bled out like thorn bush
creaking to the zip code that a
tricycle is no bicycle when one
wheel decides to drift away.
it's the way i feel around you
it's static, it's tangible, and endlessly there
with these souls like magnets
the bond could cut the heaviest of air

our beautiful whirlwind
struck down too soon
it was devastating, impossible
nothing was left to ruin

four broken years
the absence too great
our stars crossed over
it was never too late

more years together
life wished us true
now, again, challenged
please trust what we have to do

i can't predict the future
i won't know the end
but there's science to us
and we don't have to bend

reason your mind
and tread with your heart
we built this life covalently
and entropy has yet to keep us apart
we've been back together as long as we were apart. this rough patch may be our biggest test yet, but i know we consist of even more than love, if that makes sense.

My beloved Cupid, when your arrow strucks me, my heart you will pierce inflicting me with wounds of love.

When I’m elated with tingles  and sparkles of love, I will know it’s you and I will be immensely enamoured of you. My atoms will bond with yours covalently in special affinity, arousing my oxytocin and butterflies will flutter my tummy, twitching all over.

You will be music, captivated by your melody I will  desire to dance, knowing I can’t dance I will tune into your rhythm anyway, loosing my soul into your music. You will teach me all the sounds of love and together we shall tango joyously unto the edge of doom.

Our romance will be spontaneous, a memoir of sonnet 116.You will find me drenched in Proverbs 31 awaiting you. Honey, you will be tailor made for me and I for you, you my kryptonite and I your anchor.

Atomic, we are
She and I,
And all of us
Covalently co-valiant
Exchanging energies
Between us
Building a bond
That’ll keep us entangled
Our essences
Bursting out of shells
That’ll no longer define
Our properties
We change states
As we do shapes
Solidly condensed, we are
No longer ephemeral
Feminine, maybe
But on our own terms
Strongly nuclear
In our common core
The Science Sessions

— The End —
