Magnetic Hold

Magnetic Hold 
It was so...
Words can't express 
Feeling your warmth, your embrace...it's been so long 
Neither worse for the wear, both with our battle scars 
You are just as unhappy as the day we first met 
And I am just as lost 
It felt good to get out of this cold and snow 
To come play in the sun and the sand 
Especially with you 
Bodies entwined on the wet, hot sand 
Human touch, out of want and need 
Always the same as ever, so comfortable 
How many times have we came to be one? 
How many years has this gone on? 
You tell me you can't seem to get out 
What a hole you have dug yourself into 
Like a constant magnetic hold, we are 
Only getting so far apart, for so long 
You tell me how unhappy you are 
How you should have never let things get so far 
The further they go, the unhappier you grow 
The life you have built is draining your soul 
You long for the days we used to have 
The older we get, the more you regret 
But for today 
We enjoy familiar touch 
Wet, warm lips, you kissed so much 
Enjoy the day, cherish our time 
Already counting the days 
Till we meet next time
