You The Magnet To My Soul

With just a word or a simple look
You read me so well, just like a book
As a moth is drawn to a burning flame
You draw me to you just the same
Whether or not I'm doing things right
I can't stay away from you and your light

You are a dangerous as a gun to me
Even more perilous than the raging sea
I drown forever in your stormy eyes
A kiss from you sends me flying high
As for your hands they hold a magic touch
Without you here I miss you far too much

I've dived into this sea of lovers bliss
I'd go anywhere for just one small kiss
Your smile turns me into a raving fool
One glance I can feel the magnetic pull
i'm spinning around totally out of control
Oh why did you have to capture my soul?

For myself I've lost every ounce of self will
Which I think is my lifes bitterest pill
My heart and spirit are now yours to govern
I've lost all reason, I'm become stubborn
Like a magnet attracts with a powerful force
You hold me captive and my soul of course

Yep...love and madness, I sometimes wonder if there is a difference.  Eloquently expressed, Marsha, and yes, I remember it well.  Thank you.

Marsha, passion is indeed a ''magnet'' and in your words we experience its power.
Very nice.

Serenity, thank you, yes madness that's it exactly. Glad you like it
                  
Amy, the ride is definitely worth it, although sometimes I wish it was a little less like riding an untamed horse. A lot of bumps, much jumping about, and a rather strange feeling inside.
                    
Robert, glad you like it, thanks for stopping by.

Take care
