Dependancy
State of dazed and confusion
Beating heavily upon my chest
Inhaling, exhaling I welcome
The unprecedented weight of despair
Tighten around my lungs
As my esophagus becomes
Enlarged with mucus and last nights meal
Repeatedly I flex my muscles
To hold the retched stench within
Afraid of what will become
Of me if it leaves me
I now am
The dependent in this
Relationship
