Drawn to you like moth to a flame
This devastating attraction is to blame
You make me hold my breath
Filling up my senses to the very depth
Just the thought of you turns me on
A good night’s sleep seems to have gone
This vibrant chemistry between us
Strange things to my heart,it does
I can see my soul’s reflection in your eyes
As we lock gaze to mesmerize.
Such depth of emotion lives in my memories only, as beautiful memories none the less. Is all human love and attraction the reflection of the love for the flame at the centre of being? that soul’s reflection that you see in a lover’s eyes?

The vibrant chemistry between us … reminds me of once being asked as a young scientist “what kind of scientist are you” … “A physical chemist” my reply … “I’ll be the judge of that” her reply! Thanks for conjuring up the memory. Eric.
