Just Science

26/5/2017

My teacher’s a biologist, she says it’s all just science
Chemicals and hormones and surviving in defiance
But I know that when I see you
And I feel my heart beat faster
It’s more than hypotensive suprafocal tachycardia
 
It really is a wonder that cannot be explained
How love is something other than our bones and DNA
A billion years of energy has led to your creation
Perhaps that’s why, in your eyes, I see constellations.

    Ellie has been writing her whole life - journals, poems, short stories, scripts... allowing words to flow has been a constant cathartic process for her. This blog is an outlet for her writing, no more, no less.
