I wrote a poem. Can you opinion it?

dearest

What is rapture in the beautiful essence?
It feels amazing in its simplicity.

What is the longing that someone resolution predilection you
Do not you know?
Look in the mirror and imagine yourself.

And expect desolate is not adequacy and may not be ample supply
because of the love you demand to fight hard.

And even if someone wants to advise you,
Do not offer up, you obtain to credit in yourself.

So squabble as a replacement for this friendship, the other pleasure not be introduced to,
and regard is reciprocated, how six of the commute ...

reverse osmosis

by Anonyme - 26/04/2012 - 22:46

Reverse osmosis occurs when the water is moved across the membrane against the concentration gradient, from lower concentration to higher concentration. To illustrate, imagine a semipermeable membrane with fresh water on one side and a concentrated aqueous solution on the other side. If normal osmosis takes place, the fresh water will cross the membrane to dilute the concentrated solution. In reverse osmosis, pressure is exerted on the side with the concentrated solution to force the water molecules across the membrane to the fresh water side.
