Naturally
I fell in love with you, and I thought of bioluminescence. How a chemical reaction can make something light up from within, and I smiled when I realized that was what it felt like to love you. How some things don’t glow despite being disturbed, but because of it.
I thought of mycelium. How two unique mycelia can join together and create a n entire network that they never could have made alone. I thought about how the interconnectedness of mycelium is what it feels like to love you.
I thought of neurons. Neurons swirling around inside my skull, and I wondered if they form hearts when I think of you? I thought about the fact that thinking about you makes my body light up from within, and about how that’s exactly what it feels like.
