diatomic particles (n): consisting of two particlesshe walked with the world on her shoulders
senseless and strong
nobody ever thought she'd be so codependent
leaning on people like a crutch
weak and unstable
atom splitting venom leaks from her pores
as she bounces back and forth like a deflated ball
children cry in her presence
with a face so ugly yet gut wrenchingly beautiful
sucking the life from everyone in her path
incomplete on her own
soulless and hysterical
afraid of lonelinessher head held high
but her hand on his hip
forcing him along
bonding together
yet one of the samechemistry cannot be forced
