Attraction

Eyes have stared since mine had chosen to see 
Yet his make me feel things I never wanted to feel 
Words have flew past never heard in rhythm and stead
Yet his strike right into the heart made from the lead
I was light on feet, an air not captured in words 
Few could seek me and fewer could hurt
Yet his careless dismissal of the winds that ruled 
Was taunt at skill, a petty ridicule 
Attention was easy to hold and easier to shatter 
Until he walked past, it didn’t really matter 
I was pulled from the throne I put years to built 
The stage of mine now had a prominent tilt 
Yet no anger I could bring while I saw his face 
So I let him stay, make his own place 
Within the walls that had let no one in 
Well, I can’t wait for this chapter to begin.
