Magnets

"Picking up two magnets,
Mirrored in shape
Smooth as feather,
Stronger than this weather

Attempting to bend physics around
This force holds them back
Trying harder strains both their hearts
Destined to fall off the side

One tries to get close, 
While the other pushes away
We're like magnets,
But not meant to be together"
