Enigma: A poem by Gigi Mejri

Between beaker and test tube I spend my days
Analysing your components in different ways
When I say liquid you solidify
When I say solid you liquify
What an enigma !
You evaporate when I feel you reachable
You fly when I think you attainable
What an enigma !
An experiment with no result and I cry
I taste you
Sometimes sweet ,luscious and ethereal
Sometimes bitter ,salty and surreal
What an enigma !
And I dream an Alchemist to be
Unveil your secret and find your recipe
You expand ,you shrink ,you dance
On the tunes of the flow and ebb
I break my tools for I am entangled in your web
And surrender to the law of love !
