Terribly Tiny Love Letters 04 : Chemistry

    Sometimes into the night, I wonder how I'd explain what we had in my mind. I can't talk about how you were an ocean to me because honestly, it's scary and I can't really swim that well. I realized you're not adorned poetry with difficult words that one has to look up in the dictionary; that by the time one figures out what it means, the moment is gone without any explanation. I don't think of massive forces or the macrocosm when I think of you, nor butterflies and flowers.

    What I'm reminded most when I think of you are those higher secondary school's chemistry equations. I wasn't a fan of the subject but this equation-solving was intriguing and enjoyable. There was always a sense of mystery, of many cryptic possibilities and an unrest you feel until the equation is finally balanced. The content you feel after solving one and the urge to start another. That how it felt like to love you.

Sated and insatiable at the same time.

  1. Making thought out of something which doesn't matter is a sign of a good mind and a writer.

    My question is, Why you choose to write what you wrote ?

    1. Sometimes what I write isn't a matter of choice, Shamil. It just occurs and I'd feel the need to write it. :)

  3. "I can't talk about how you were an ocean to me because honestly, it's scary and I can't really swim that well."

    This is probably one of the most beautiful line that I ever read. Such deep and full of emotions, is this expression.

    Beautifully written :)
