I am attracted to you

               Like an electron to a proton
               Together we form an ionic bond
               Though we are opposite charged ions
               I am drawn towards you
               Our love is unique as an orbital
               For only two electrons can fill this space
               As my love for you increases
               My energy level rises
               I am in this excited state
               Increasing the tendency to form a chemical bond
               I was an element
               It took you to make me a compound substance
               Falling in love with you is a chemical reaction
               Which cause my love for you to grow
               Ours is an exothermic love
               Each for giving off love not just absorbing it
               Sometimes you do something especially nice
               Which speeds up the chemical process
               Like a catalyst in my increasing love for you
               I realise we have our inhibition periods
               And sometimes I am selfish enough
               To be an endothermic reaction
               Only absorbing your love
               The feeling I have for you is so intense
               It cannot be measured in kilojoules
               Often I have to make a qualitative elementary analysis
               To understand and love you more
               But I don't expect to know your empirical formula
               You are too complex a person for that
               When you are gone
               I am a noble gas
               An inert substance
               When I am without you
               The world seems still
               And I am at equilibrium
