Chemistry 101

Chemistry 101

It didn't matter that I was a nervous knot when I met him
Outside the student center on a crackling cold November night
Or that I felt like a yearling doe barely past her spots,
Caught in the headlights of an eighteen wheeler
Because in my eyes he was a twelve point buck.
Just that the chemistry was there.
The catalyst was when he said I had beautiful cobalt blue eyes.
My electrons were electrified
My neutrons were nuked
My protons were positive
And my Bunsen burner was lit!
