That Blood Stained Blade

By Crysa

Ah, cool steel.
My head seemed to clear
with the separating of my skin.
I could FEEL!

Sweet Release,
Streaming tears mixing with blood,
the tension severed.
What peace!

The scars fade.
I'll never forget the salvation
found within, that blood stained blade.

  • A former member wrote: Alas Juilliette, if you had only woken a few seconds earlier it would have been your lovers lips that brought you to life. Salvation in steel, I find it too often in angst poetry, but never in swords, and never do they usually find life in it... nice.
