Codependent Tendencies
Memories intertwined
The love of one
Deeply connected
Magnets drawn together
Stunk in the HOV
We ride till we die.
Do I miss you Or
Do I depend on you
All my thoughts revolving
Around your Saturn rings
Rocked by your waves
Crashing down when ur not around
You are my light
I follow in your strides
Like a duck
My earth quakes
I lose myself
Missing you
All I ever do
Awaiting to feel secured
These boundaries rigid and invisible
Space creating pull
No control over
The many emotions needing tending
Caretaker to it all
I try to fix you
But I fall
Deeper into love
Ahead of myself
I lose my head
Absorbing your words
Threatened by your disappearance
Your problems my own
No line in the sand
You overtake me
Obsessions
Always on my mind
Did I make a mistake
Will you walk away
I squeezed too tight
Afraid you will seep through my fingers
Losing you I lose myself
Dependent on your love
Abandoned, I wasn’t enough
I still cling to you
Denying it won’t work out
No matter the pain
I stand by your side
I know I can fix this
Please, don’t leave me
Vulnerability and need for intimacy
I crave you
My favorite dish
Feeding on dependency
Smothering your autonomies
I want all of your time
No need for separations
Too painful emotions
Colliding their needs
Tendencies too dependent
Mental illness runs rampant
I can’t control
My codependent tendencies.
