A Love Song for Quantum Uncertainty

My love for you exists
in superposition —
simultaneously
everywhere and nowhere,
like Schrödinger’s heart
beating and not beating
until observed.

I am both
falling and not falling,
a wave function
of possibility
collapsing into yes
or no or maybe
each time you look my way.

Our first kiss exists
in infinite parallel universes:
in one, we miss completely;
in another, galaxies birth
between our lips;
in most, we’re still
approaching at half-distances,
never quite touching.

You can measure
my momentum of wanting
or my position of need
but never both
at the same time —
uncertainty principle
of desire.

We entangle at quantum levels,
my spin matching yours
across space-time,
consciousness coupled
despite classical distance.
What Einstein called
“spooky action at a heart.”
