sometimes i think
i am a magnet.
yes, you heard it right.
i attract people
into my life,
and repel some.
sometimes i get attracted
to some people
and rejected by others.
but in the choice of
magnets,
i will choose to be
a bar magnet.
my life is straight
like a bar magnet.
i have my
goals, vision
and direction
decided.
but somehow
i get lost
in the forces
of attraction
and rejection.
acceptance and
denial.
i would say one
side of the magnet
is me,
and the other one
is god.
sometimes
i want a person so hard
in my life,
but god repels the person
and throws her out
of my way.
sometimes i want
my job so hard,
but god closes that door.
sometimes i don't
love myself,
but god attracts me
towards myself.
this is liberating
as well as
exhausting.
i know god does things
for my own benefit
but somehow i can't
find a clue as to why
certain things
happen
and why others
don't.
but it's okay,
as long as i am
a magnet
i don't think
i need to find answers.
as long as god is
with me
i am sure
i don't have to question
things.
as long as i am with
myself,
i am sure i can remain
a bar magnet,
happily.

Excellent.
I was a bar magnet. Now I prefer to stay at home.
Yeaa
