Our hearts were once close; two nucleons held tight
By a force that was strong, and a love that burned bright.
But, that force became weaker as the days faded ‘way,
And with it, our bond began to decay.
I’ve realize that opposites don’t always attract
(Otherwise, the atom would be more compact),
And opposites we were, our differences great,
Continuing this way, we’d annihilate.
In truth, I’ve quite had it with your duality,
Your warm disposition; cold mentality.
We must be entangled - what else can explain
How, though we are distant, you still cause me pain?
We’ve exchanged mediators, but our half-lives were short,
All data suggests we should promptly abort.
Our collision is over, and signatures thereof
Have vanished, leaving us not a quantum of love.
