Your bloody towel hangs
Limply
By the side of the bed
While I lie beside
Limply
Bleeding inside
The knife of your stress
Cuts me deep
Every time
Every month
I take your wounds
I bleed for you
Partners in despair
It's all that's there
Between us now
Between me and you
The bloody towel
Lies mute beside
Drained of all the tears
We two have cried
Caked with the blood
Of drops that dried.
