The Draw
What is it about you?
I cannot let you go.
I feel pulled towards you
no matter what you do
(or don’t do) to me.
This attraction I feel for you
is magnetic…hypnotic…
(it’s…pathetic!
That’s it, no more!
You are dead to me!
Just say no! Walk away!)
God, I love the way your cheeks flush
That little curve at the side of your mouth
Those shining eyes that sparkle wickedly
You’re so funny, and smart…
Hey – what are you doing later?
Me? Oh, nothing. Yeah, I can meet up late tonight.
Sure. I’ll be waiting for you. I’ll be there. Waiting.
(How did that just happen again?)

A Turncoat Collaboration
“Traitorous cooperation with an enemy”
It’s what I entered into with you
But I didn’t know that at first.
At first, you were my soulmate, my joy, my everything
There was nothing that you could not make better
No feeling you did not temper, no event that you did not help me through.
After my first taste of you
I chose you, again and again.
Like a vampire needing the invitation to enter my doorway
You waited patiently for me to choose each time
Knowing that I would.
And one day, I found that
choice had become need; need, compulsion
I was a turncoat against my own life force.
In a battle with the dark side
I was sided with the enemy
inflicting sabotage against my own forces.
I surrendered and I survived, even thrive
Yet I see you there, ever waiting for an invite inside
That slight grin on your face, as if to say, you knew I’d be back.
I say no invitation today, old “friend.”
I am in cahoots with my life now.
