Mathematical Love


This love I have
Is but math in disguise
Waiting for me in mere surprise

Adding time
Subtracting mistakes
Just say the word, that’s all it takes

Multiplying my love
Dividing my reason
Only to make this a full equation

But what will I get
From a love so divine
What’s on the other end of the equal sign

Whatever I receive
Is it complete
Or do I stare back at the equation in mere defeat

Mixed, perfect
Fraction, whole
I know there’s an answer yet to be foretold

It will end up
As an integer
And that will be my final answer

But whatever the case
I’ll do my best
Because I don’t have forever to take this test

So I’ll have to find
An answer real quick
To solve some simple arithmetic
