Yet is so bad.
It takes away my pain
When I'm down, when I'm sad.
It distracts me from all emotion
That seems as big as the ocean,
And you're stuck in the middle.
You're so small, so little.
It's like an addiction.
It controls all your thoughts
Until you realize it.
It's hurting you a lot.
On the arm
The scars will always stay.
I just wish
All the memories would go away.
No more memories shall I make.
That's why this knife I take,
And when I destroy it
I will cry a little bit,
But it will get better.
I will write her a letter.
I will tell her I'm better
Without the knife. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 164 [topic] => 65 [informant] => lonelypoet08 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => toughstuff )

The Knife

The knife is so good,
Yet is so bad.
It takes away my pain
When I'm down, when I'm sad.
It distracts me from all emotion
That seems as big as the ocean,
And you're stuck in the middle.
You're so small, so little.
It's like an addiction.
It controls all your thoughts
Until you realize it.
It's hurting you a lot.
On the arm
The scars will always stay.
I just wish
All the memories would go away.
No more memories shall I make.
That's why this knife I take,
And when I destroy it
I will cry a little bit,
But it will get better.
I will write her a letter.
I will tell her I'm better
Without the knife.
