A chemical equation
to explain my whole life
to mark centuries of strife
Rooted at our eldest tradition
Bothering me, deep down.

Looking at my own little thoughts
circle around you like a golden sphere
telling myself there’s no logic in them
it’s all mother nature’s work here
So lets step back
take a breath
and admit that love’s
no more than chemistry

Ever considered your little substances
connecting and exchanging with mine
unnoticed under every spoken line
turning on natural grievances
pulling me apart.

Laughing at my silly head
to adore you so sillily right now
its all too obvious, telling myself
there’s not a why, just a how
so let’s stay cool and let cold thought
conquer the sweetest juice in life

Till finally I can say,
I’d never thought I’d See
But today’s the day
That reason killed me

I especially love the ending!:

"Till finally I can say,
I’d never thought I’d See
But today’s the day
That reason killed me(!)"

Applause!!

Hmmm...easier said than done, huh?
The degree of difficulty, putting the heart out there...is a +10.  
I liked the whole poem.  A great style.
