The Formula Of Our Love

The Formula Of Our Love = H2O

The ionic bond between us

An irrefutable truth

A chemical reaction

Binding me to you

A thermal conductivity 

The laws of physics apply

A diatomic ductility

Deliquescence derived 

A sound empirical formula

A chemical fondue

A combination of elements

An equation to construe

An aqueous solution

A viscosity to share

A virtual chain reaction 

Of an electron pair

A unique ionization 

“Brownian motion” ensues

A buoyant base of liquid

Molecules of me and you

Translucent and inviting

Surface tension lets us float 

A sensuous swirl of loving

An hydrolysis of hope

The formula that feeds us

From which our love emerged 

The elements between us

That lets our hearts converge 

And though our positive polarities

From separate sources flow

They form a simple compound

Our love is ... H2O
