Strategically I situated myself
So my like end would repel you,
Like magnets, I move when you do.

Whirling about in a silly little waltz,
Every step you take towards me
Leaves no change in our proximity.

Until one day I will let myself go,
Allow our poles to situate themselves out,
Resulting in my North to your South.

There is nothing more that we
Can possibly do
This force something ingrained in me, and in you.

It can't be controlled.
It's a scientific fact.
Just something that happens: Opposites attract.

Tell them that
You need me just
As much.

Then they won't
Think I'm
Crazy.

I love you.
Written on a night I was sloppy drunk, in sloppy handwriting.

Once upon a time,
In some imaginary land,
I knew exactly how it felt
To be with you, hand in hand.

When we kissed in this made-up place,
My head swam, and sparks flew,
Goosebumps rose, knees got weak
For me... But not for you.

But once the stars have left my eyes
And my heartbeat's not so rapid,
It's then I see that this was all a dream.
It never really happened.

When you look at me,
With eyes indifferent and dead,
I know this place where we were "we,"
Only existed inside my head.
A true story.

I wish I knew just what to say.
That perfect thing to make you stay.

You know my heart, it breaks, my dear,
Because "I love you" is not what you want to hear.
Title suggestions?

You say you are Switzerland,
As a metaphor for your indifference.

But, it's not really fair
To say that the Swiss don't care.

It's only that they don't want to fight.
And I'll tell you what, baby:
Neither do I.
A true story.

I miss the warm whisper
Of your breath on my cheek.
It was the vaporized reassurance
Through which, I could do all things.
