If it is true that you and i

If it is true that you and I 

are made of those splendid atoms

people talk about, and if it is true that they 

are made 

of those even more splendid sub-atoms, like they say, 

if it is true that two sub-atoms once they’ve touched 

and once split up, each one senses the other forever

vibrating in the farthest corner of the universe,

if this is true, 

are you leaving?
