Magnetic Pull

Your touch stopped me in my tracks,
It wasn't based on physical means.
A strong pull that I felt to the max,
I questioned it; we were just teens.

When you said “ I Do” to another girl,
I started to doubt what we had.
A year later, you’d have a son Earl.
Instead of being angry, I was glad.

Our paths crossed many years later,
The pull was still stronger than ever.
But I found out you weren't a dater.
Bad break up and you vowed never.

My heart was all in; I knew the truth,
Eventually, you surrendered to love.
Our bond transpired in our youth,
It's a special gift from up above.

Interestingly, the captcha code is, "BAM". The trouble with pheromones is that two people can be physically attracted to each other when they really can't stand the other person! Aloha! Rico
