When you are around

I often seem wary of you Like I’m trying to avoid you When you are around I feel this Force, pulling and recognizing you It’s like a magnet I ignore you But I can see you Flickering In my peripheral vision I throw you incredulous looks and Pretend annoyances But I’m not. What I’m is afraid Afraid to be consumed by you. Your energy, our energy Recognizes each other It’s maddening yet soothing It’s all I want but won’t allow Because we would obliterate Everything around us Would we? Couldn’t we? How Would it be? Restrain is wearing thin Vanishing with each thought During our talks our locked gazes The place I can’t hide What our fire has brought to life
