But in the chemistry known as us, our equation just couldn't be balanced. I initiated, but your reactions didn't yield the desired product. And so we are back to being separate elements, back to wandering in a sea of people, as if we had never collided.
"Yes, I was infatuated with you: I am, still. No one has ever heightened such a keen capacity of physical sensation in me. I cut you out because I couldn't stand being a passing fancy. Before I give my body, I must give my thoughts, my mind, my dreams. And you weren't having any of those."
- Sylvia Plath
