CHEMISTRY

We share so much in common, it feels like fate’s design,
And though I stumble in poetry, the fault is never in line.
For what exists between us no verse can quite show,
It’s the quiet reaction that only we know.

You deserve the thoughtfulness hidden in rhyme,
The kind that endures, not bound by time.
The way your laughter rewrites my days,
Like rarest of elements, setting me ablaze.

If joy were measured, the curve would ascend,
No limit, no peak, no sudden end.
A bond so steady, unseen yet sure,
A formula simple, yet strong and pure.

So take these words, not flawless, but true,
Every reaction leads me to you.
Not hurried, not fleeting, but something that stays,
A chemistry lasting through all of our days.

It’s more than attraction, more than desire,
It’s the spark of a truth that will never expire.
An unseen current, a force we can’t see,
Binding two hearts in perfect degree.

Like rarest metals that never decay,
Like light that endures at the break of day.
What we’ve become is not fragile or small,
But something unshaken, surpassing it all.

This isn’t chance, nor fleeting flame,
It’s something eternal, without a name.
An alchemy ancient, both tender and strong,
A power that’s lived in us all along.

For ours is a bond no time can sever,
Not just for now, but always, forever.
Unyielding, unbroken, through distance and strife,
The greatest connection, the chemistry of life.
