Pull Me Closer

I crave for you,

Like the tides seek the shore

But I cannot tell you

About the sea that keeps

Pulling me closer to it,

Away and away from you.

I want you to pull me,

Towards you,

Like iron fillings around a magnet

Just the way the sea pulls me.

In this war,

You are the commander,

You are the battalion,

And also the weapons.

A fight against the sea,

To win me.

Because it's exhausting,

To walk a step everyday

To the other side,

Towards the sea,

Away from you.

Pull me closer,

And I'll then close my eyes,

To hope and pray,

That maybe, your pull

Would be stronger

And I can forever

Come back

Into your arms.
