Redemption

Redemption

A Poem by Askew

I want to be stabbed
A knife thrust into my gut
Only once or twice, no need to worry
A different kind of penetration
Will it feel different?
Hurt more or less than my fall from grace?
I never asked to fall
Truly, I never did!
I was pushed from the heavens above
And never once tried to save myself
Stab me
I'll bleed again
This time I'll fight back
Take the knife from those hands
And turn the blade back round on my assailant
Thise pent up rage I've carried since 15
Will bleed out with me
Overflow like the gushing throat I'll slash
We'll die together in matching red pools
But I will have finally won
I want to be stabbed
