Love and heartache
Clutching the very blade that has stabbed me in the back
And pierced through my heart once before
Rivers of salt overflowing from those that have caused me to see
Too much hurt
Overflowing because this blade has no handle
Yet I hold on to this blade with all my power
And I watch my hand bleed
And I bleed
And I bleed
And I bleed...
But I can only bleed for so long
As my blood begins to thin I shall loosen my grip
And when all blood is gone I fall lifelessly on the floor
Dropping the blade
And it is here that I lay
And I lay
And I lay
And I lay...
Allowing myself to heal
And after sufficient time has passed I shall stand tall
And walk away
Leaving the blade behind...
Only to start my search for a new blade
