Put Down the BladeA Poem by RubiconA pained love poemMy darling girl My prairie rose Clean as the snow Wild as the fire White in spirit Red in the heart Put down the blade Let out your hate Let go of pain Hold not to grief Look not for fear Throw out anger Drop the despair Put down the blade Do not cause pain Do not make harm Not to yourself Not to my love Every slash hurts Every cut bleeds Put down the blade My own heart weeps My own mind cries My angel bleeds My love in red Your despair felt In my own soul Put down the blade Every cut known My heart hurts more My mind is gone My soul is wretched Slit my spirit My essence drained Put down the blade Your mind is hurt? Your soul is cut? You think your arms Hurt more than me? My life burns hot With the panic Put down the blade Apprehension Trepidation This foreboding Of you alive Is this the end? Are you still here? Put down the blade Come back to me Don’t run away To you I look From day to night You haunt my dreams You haunt my wake Put down the blade I saw your face Staring at me Today I saw You one last time From the newspaper Why didn’t you Put down the blade? © 2014 Rubicon |
