A one way spiral | The Art of Poetry | Page 1

I have experienced love just once before-
And I know what it does to heart. To a person.
Turns it into something unrecognizable.
I had promised myself to not walk into that maze
That spiral.
That deep, deep spiral.
But there was magnet inside, and it pulled me closer
And closer
And soon I found myself tumbling inside.
Maybe the magnet were your jokes.
Or maybe the magnet was your smile.
Or just 'you'.
But now I'm here and I know there's no going back.
It's a one way route before you leave too
And the spiral is nothing more than a dark, enclosed place.
One where no one would want to be.
If I were given a choice to leave now,
I don't think I would be able to, though.
I don't think I would want to.
