You Are a Force

Janet Kuypers
4/6/12

is your beauty, is your soul,
causing my attraction to you,
is it a force of nature?

are you like gravity
dropping me to my knees
whenever I think of you.

or are you like magnetism,
how my need’s only magnified
as I draw closer to you

giving me impetus
to increase my velocity,
to join you, to bond with you.

that’s the only way
I can explain this,
you know.

I know your momentum,
I know this special relativity,
causes this action-reaction.

you must have a power
no one else has harnessed,
to do this to me.

the electric force between us
excites me, and burns me,
and still curls me in an arc to you.

but this friction, this tension
I feel when we’re apart
snaps me with an elastic force,

reminds me that I must abide
by the laws of motion
when it comes to you,

because, as I said,
like our dynamic equilibrium,
you must be a force of nature.
