The Blade

Copyright, Raine

Cold and shiny
Sharp and harmful
It’s easy to get lost in the beauty of something so dangerous
One slip of the hand and your a goner
A quick slit across the wrist
Blood pouring down your veins
The warmth of your own blood so intoxicating
You look at it for a while and wonder
Then think “what happens next?”
Then a thought comes to mind the one person to cause all this pain
Is the one person who you think you know the most
When suddenly out of the blue
They take away something you truly need
The one thing you want and instantly
Your world is turned upside down
Then if you ever escape that dreaded prison
You’ll find the world around you is still the same
Even with out you
