“I see now that the circumstances of one's birth are irrelevant. It is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are.”

Codependent

1
Put milk in my coffee,
Not the usual I want;
Stir it until creamy,
I like it lukewarm.

2
Open the curtains to see,
Tiny homes and skyscrapers;
Point to me what you see,
Cast shadows or towers?

3
Lie with me on the bed,
Soft cushions that drown;
Lay your head on my chest,
I barely breathe a sound.

4
Paint the gray walls white,
Until it's bright as moon;
Dim the lamps at night,
And we dance to your tune.
