what you read may deceive

Our relationship was a wheel

The wheel started rolling

Different forces—

Attraction

Drive

Passion

Lust

Caused its high-speed acceleration

It came to a point

Where we became unstoppable

Our direction pointed everywhere

But

Right

No conditions were favorable

Resistance interfered motion

Friction caused the pain

The ride became exhausting

It ended

With sweat

Tears

And blood.

You were an O

I was an H

Apart,

We were gases

Together,

We were flowing and free

Together,

We formed

Water

All the while I thought

You—and—I

Connected

But the bond we had was

Hydrogen bond—mine,

And mine alone

Water easily separated

Through heat

It evaporated

And now,

The chemistry is gone.
