Attachment - Sucks Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

 
 Attachment sucks
the life out of a
loving relationship.


We should love
without being
clingy or needy
and without
codependency.

The sweetness
of love comes
when we forget
ourselves and
focusing our
attention on
a perfect being;
our beloved.

Attachment is
what happens
when we try
and hold onto love,

domesticate it,
or use it to prove
how lovable we are.

(Written from the comments of
the great poetess Marie Shine of Listowel, Ireland)
