Opposites Attract

Years back in my school days,
they taught me this universal  law:
"Opposites attract".
Be it magnets or ionic bonds,
"Opposites do attract".
But little did I know,
that one day I'll experience,
what North and South poles do,
being pulled  towards someone,
by an invisible force, truly awesome.

I was never the kind you were,
dying for things I hated.
Be it pubs or parties
or spending  the nights dancing,
for I would rather switch off all lights,
and be alone in the dark.
A finicky eater was what I was
though not  fussy  about  my  looks,
and nothing  annoyed  me  more
than the  "music" on your iPod,
and wasting precious hours
chatting so long, on the phone.

Still as time went by, I began to realize,
nothing in this world, would make me as happy,
as spending few seconds with you,
and all of a sudden I found  myself
awake at  nights, listening to the songs you loved,
awaiting that one phone call.

No longer am I scared of partying,
as long as you're close to me.
No matter I  have to dance, for nights together,
I don’t like being lonely for a moment,
desolate and dreary in darkness.
for I know, I'm just fortunate
to be with someone I know
would never leave me alone,
even if she wants to,
for that is what the law says:
"Opposites attract".
