you are tied to me

You are tied to me now
Invisible titanium chains
Universal bondage
Tied tighter than your
Bedpost silk scarf knots
Tighter than your
Wrist binding belt
Holding hands in the small of my back
Tighter than the blindfold
You used to make me wear

You never noticed I'd stopped bleeding
Preoccupied by the scars on my arms
You never noticed I'd stopped bleeding
Too intent on twisting your knife in my heart

You are tied to me now
Anchored
And a million harsh words
Cannot sever our link
You could burn all your hatred
But the fire wouldn't melt the chain

You saw me each morning
Swallow my oestrogen supplement
With my Prozac, my vitamins
And my cornflakes
You blindly watched me when I didn't

You are tied to me now
In mingled spiralling double helixes
My X
Your X
In the DNA of this beautiful creature
Our daughter
