science
That one solved
You were the one equation
I wished more than anything
To solve,
To hold the solution in my hand
And triumphantly declare
That love had won, found a way.
Except
It
Did not;
Instead leaving me with many
More questions,
But time is kind in that way
The older I become,
The less I care for answers.

PAD Challenge Day 16:
For today’s prompt, write a science poem. Your poem could be about science in a general sense, but you can also latch onto a specific field or story. Maybe write a poem about the scientific method, or juxtapose science against another idea like love, war, or cuisine. Remember: Science is the springboard; which way you jump is up to you.
