Numbers

He came,
Finding solace in mathematical equations
That he shared with her to solve
His inner longings
Something felt  
In the depths of eternity
Energy born  
Sharing minutes, hours  
Calculated dreams
 
Were they not a sum of parts?
Twisted together in time?
His blue eyes gazing at her  
Became a kaleidoscope of prisms
Broken down in mathematical genius
That penetrated her heart
At first glance,
 
Damn him,
For closing them so quickly
Not giving her time to
Finish the equation
Leaving her breathless
With a multitude of problems
Unanswered  
 
She was told there would be no math.
