codependency

might i juxtapose your new repose

spring to life like a wild grove

find meaningless meaning in faith's trove

while you sink into despair?

.

yeah i'll move like a honeybee would

seeking pollen on the backs of your moods

(like you're a flower that's wilting soon)

then i'll take to the air!

.

oh puzzle piece, oh sad/joy pie

i may never fully understand why

one of us drinks the rain from the sky

so the other can repair.

.

as if each life has a happiness tax

and we're filing jointly to cover that

traveling farther away on the same track—

is this burden ever there?

.

surely soon again i'll be unwell

and like the tolling of a bell

you'll hear lost inspiration swell...

this duality's unfair.
