If I were a substrate, <br />you would be my active site. <br />If I loved explosives, <br />you would be my dynamite. <br />If I loved bright things, <br />You would be my flash of light. <br /> <br />In times of weakness, <br />Your love resonates within me. <br />To my nitty-gritty, you make me. <br />But you are not my atoms. <br />You are my protons, neutrons and electrons. <br /> <br />Yet your love goes goes even further, <br />For to the infinitely small, <br />You are my quarks. <br />And to the infinitely large, <br />You are my Universe. <br /> <br />Copyright © 2008 Leslie Alexis<br /><br />Leslie Alexis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-scientist-s-love-story/
