As I walk each step
was a step in his direction.
Like a magnet
felt the pulling force
of his charm
As north and south poles
are furthest points.
So our lives were too.
Life seemed pointless
Heart was enticed
Brain saw though
his false charm…
Author notes
Have you ever loved someone so much you didn't care what happened to yourself?
You just had to be with them. If they look at you, your heart stops.
If you feel their breath on your skin, you just ache.
Have you ever craved someone so much you didn't exist anymore?
