Smother

I can't breathe
beneath this weight
of the world.
It's resting on me.
Constricting me.
I can't breathe.
No, I can't breathe.
Your love is imaginative.
I know it.
I'm not a fool, I'm addicted.
Addicted to this pain you've afflicted.
I'm choking
and I can't
breathe.
I still
can't
breathe.
Darling was this your plan all along?
To suffocate my flame.
Put me out.
gone.
I can't breathe.
You've smothered me.
And the light I once had is imaginative now.
In the darkness I will meet my creators
And they will all agree, that I’m a suffocator.
I smothered myself
in my ignorance.
