Chemistry

Tuesday February 2, 2010

Is it the emerald spark of life in my eyes
Or my angelic tone that draws you nearer
Pheromones and chemistry
Have you hooked like an opiate
Line and sinker
You fly toward me
Unable to stop yourself or slow

What is this attraction
That has you so forlorn
That you would risk your heart
To be held in these arms
To know me again
As you once did
As only yours

Will you throw caution to the wind
With reckless abandon
What is safe and secure
Just to feel
And be felt
And let chemistry abolish restraint
And pheromones govern reason

Or will you know now as you knew then
That we are dangerous
When combined
Or used for unintended purposes
Caustic and lethal
This mixture
Better left apart and marked
A pirate skull for warning
Left unsatisfied
and Yearning
