I will exchange my knifes for my pencil
Letting my words become my pills
They flow from my mind instead of the blood from my wrists
Take my words for what they are
Listen to them daily and find me there
Only taste my works to see how I live
Never eat them whole
They will fill you up till you're too full
And you will see things as I see
You will look on events as I do
And worst of al you may be as I be
To only glimpse my world is the trick of it
Once you find the door to my world use me as the key
But only crack the door don't fling it open
For fear of the horrors you will see
And once they see you they will fall on thee
So be warned my words are a living death
Death falling not from a knife but from my breath

this is fantastic.
love the metaphor here,
i've written one like this, same metaphor and whatnot.
good rhythm,
nothing seemed forced -
like you had to scramble for the write words.
loved the final line,
makes it that much better.
