The Attraction of You


Sometimes, the nearness of you is enough
to empty my mind of all, but memories shared.
How powerful, the attraction of you.

Sometimes I wish to reach out to you
by voice, by words, hoping to not be misunderstood.
How hard it is, to be in control.

Sometimes I lose that self-control
finding myself there, in dreams, by your side, unnoticed.
How strong, your attraction is.

And other times, I follow those dreams
to be with you, if only for a moment's touch.
How I love, what attracts me to you.

...to freeze that moment of attraction and savour it in its entirety at any other moment in time -- that is something that poetry tries to attain, and sometimes succeeds in doing...  Written with feeling, Wynter.

As a moth is attracted to flame ... do not burn yourself, sweet Maureen, just enjoy the warmth

Yes, that attraction is so strong, and as Interloper said, can be dangerous. But also it can be a wonderful feeling to have and hold within.

I gotta agree with Interloper on this one Maureen, but the warmth is wonderful.  Enjoyed.
