Innate Magnetism

Innate magnetism is more of real than fiction 
It is like an appeal that sparks surge of friction 
It is like an inherent and a natural allure 
It is more than a tonic, ever stronger and pure 

It is like a potion that creates an attraction 
But it has no recipe and it has no concoction 
It is a natural liking that sparks sudden desire
It is like a craving for someone that we admire 

It is a charm that attracts the feeling of affection 
And if someone is charmed, it sparks an obsession
It is like a fire in one’s heart without a flame 
For the heart that it caught becomes docile and tame 

Innate magnetism is a sense of direction 
It’s when one does a thing solely out of intuition 
Every human has it like an animal instinct 
Though the dose in every human is varied and distinct

Innate magnetism is a natural healing 
It’s when one doesn't need a drug to soothe the feeling 
The animals have it, like a prana, its inherent 
Though the dose in every human maybe different
