Tell me

Whats the easiest way to get to the

Heart?

Is it a broad sword?

Long and dull

Flat and

Loud.

Crushing those

Ribs

Splintering that

Fragile

Heart

Into a pulpy

Mess.

Or is it that dagger

Whisper thin and short

Shining and

Silent

Sharp like a

Haunting wraith

Searching

Searching

Searching

For its

Vengeance.

Slipping through ribs like

Sharks through

Water

Slicing that

Fragile

Heart

Into neat chunks of

Loss and

Pain

Such unending

All-consuming

Pain that can be

Wrought

By that

Blade

Slicing through flesh

Like a

Blade

Of grass

Cutting up the

Wind.

Sharp as those

Forgotten moments of

Laughter

Those bottles

half full

Perfume

Quick as the

Ghost of dancing

Footsteps

Forgotten stains

Unfinished emails

Undone prayers

All the things

Left

Behind

Incomplete.

They will stab you

Again

Again

Again

Wraith-like blades

Whisper-thing and short

Shining and silent

It is the little

The small

Things that will

Hurt

The most.
