The Blade

by jaki   Aug 19, 2005


I watch as you turn the blade
Over and over in your hands
You seem so comfortable with it
And what’s even sadder
Is that it looks so normal in your hands
But I can’t help my mind from wandering
As I see your perfect pale skin
With blood running down it
And the blood on the knife
And I can’t help but hear your voice
Laughing and repeating the words “Im fine”
And the thing that scares me most
Is that I know there is nothing I can do to help
