I am your latest obsession.
Here you are again, holding me captive.
Just when I’m comfortable in my skin,
And feel like I’m finally starting to fit in.

You come back, taunting me with your presence
And here I am, already missing your absence.
It’s a Stockholm Syndrome relationship
Between you and I
My happiness is too far from reach

As you sit there, watching me with idle eyes
I’ve come to both love and hate you, really
Because I know we’ll never sever our iron ties
You’re like an anchor, weighing me down
All I can do is watch myself sink and drown
I am forever lost in you, apart of you
You’re a smotherer, I know you love me too
Dr Peter Lim Oct 2017
My heart doesn't wander
in careless search of love
but I've never been
a love-smotherer

solitude I hug
like none other
while love vacillates
my aloneness survives every weather.
