Whirlpool

Locked in the middle of a whirlpool,
While the rest of of my life swirls around me.
Transfixed by him, in there, beside me.
Obliviousto my life swirling away
I try to grasp my heart, but
It flutters away, and lands in his lap.
"Fragile," is written across it, "Handle
With care." But he is still unaware
Of the hold he has on me.
