Codependency
though they'd not been born
as co-joined twins
a bond so close merged
in their relationship's fins*
one couldn't move without
the other being alongside
always together they took
the same stepping stride
co-dependent
in everything
even of mind?
co-dependent
in everything
this their
bind
but there was a controlling
one in the pair
it was ******* the other's
living air
it
put
a
proviso
on
the
body
that
was
weaker
directing
it
to
be
its
spinner
speaker
the weaker one knew
that the mightier one
had its secrets hidden
away
and that it should do
what its co-joined twin
did forevermore
say
there's a sacrifice
to be made by the weaker
*in codependency
