Cutting razor
blade of life
Pointless, dull
existence knife
Sharpened by
the edge of strife
Won't somebody
save my life
From this wretched,
worthless knife
Buried in
my skin of strife
This sorrow stalks
its prey of life
And sets it teeth
of biting knife
Upon my flesh
to feast on strife
Vampiric in its
draining life
This empty, soulless,
cold-heart knife
Shall feel the warmth
of crimson strife
Until the streams
of dripping life
Release my grip
upon this knife
And rivers flow
in tranquil strife
See I know why
you've courted strife
I've tasted lips
of the sweet knife
Her tempting kiss
was my whole life
Through ****** tears
and sweaty strife
I've cried with every
lonely knife
That spends each day
so lost in life
Adrift at sea
shipwreck of strife
Beckoned by
beguiling knife
To drown in siren
songs of life
Through Odysseys
of epic strife
I forged a sword
to replace knife
Allowed this pen
to claim my life
An argonaut
against the strife
To tides of ink
I cast the knife
Now fight with me
write for your life
