Balancing equations creates an inbalance in my life

Here's a chemical poem...enjoy ;)

The sunny day takes on a gloom
Flowers lose their bloom
In the chemistry lab there is a boom

When swirls of H₂S our nostrils flay
Out of the lab we try to walk
But we sway

When acids and bases
Neutralise to form water and salt
Most of our experiments come to a halt
