Power of the Knife

Contributed by sprinter27 on Saturday, 14th May 2005 @ 09:02:49 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



Her hand gripped the handle tightly
Moved it towards her wrist slightly
Thought of what she was doing with the knife
Knew she was fighting the strife
She moved the knife closer to her skin
Carved a cut in the shape of a large pin
She knew what she was doing was wrong
But didn’t care about what was right or wrong
Cutting herself released the blood
And pain through the loss of blood
She picked up the knife every night
Knew it was her only way to fight
Every night paused to think
But then put the knife in thick
No sense fighting
The knife is striving
To carve her skin every day
Let the blood drip every day
The knife wants it all
Not the poor little girl
She’s been lost to the power of the knife
Her only cure in this long-lasting strife

This is such a tragic poem. I've known too many people (one is enough!) that are pushed toward the knife because of the pain in their lives. It kills me when good people suffer this way because others hurt them so. (My thoughts on the matter are here [www.your-poetry.com] in case you are curious). You have friends who care for you!
