The Classic Codependent

i.

make me
undo what’s been done

birth me anew
from your loin i can become

something
anything else but what i see before me

ii.

crawling to you
and yet i have nothing to bring
except this tired frown
the bags beneath my eyes
the baggage i’m carrying

iii.

don’t make me
do what’s bound to be done

don’t make me go
don’t make me show you
all of me

don’t make me
give you
all i could be

don’t make me
want to be
someone else

iv.

simply put
you surface like the sunrise
a love, kilimanjaro
dormant, asleep but dreaming


and dreaming of nothing less
than the mariana trench
a love, so deep
it’s become unreal

v.

i realize there’s nothing more than this
brief moment
you escape me
and i fear everything including fear itself

i realize there’s nothing more than this
raw rapture
you elude me
and i fear nothing is worse

vi.

you could go on
for days and decades
you could go on

and i would listen

i would submit
i would divulge
i would become

vii.

if you weren’t to respond
i completely understand
afterall, i hardly find

myself engaging

You know who this is.... said...
I love it. I feel like this...an eternal slumber of quiet wisdom, no one knows what I see, who I am, what you could be if you were with me.
