Eons ago a river began rushing towards this split in time, A finity splitting to infinity. A human mind encompassing eternity; The shine of a thousand suns flaring in one blink unavoidable, It was fate leading to love. |

Poem about a moment when a person fell in love suddenly (i.e., met a person, knew them for months, and then suddenly felt a spark of realization after which their feelings became romantic love for the other person).
Inspired by some of the wording in "Reproductive Invariance" by Denise Low

The word "unavoidable" ties the first and second halves of the poem together.
Initially I was stuck there not sure what to put to tie the two haves together.
There is no period after unavoidable because I felt that would be too jarring.
I considered titling the poem unavoidable, or something similar, but I felt that would take away the thunder of that word.
