These Words
These words,
These words are knifes.
These knifes carve skin.
That skin leakes blood .
That blood made up of cells
Cells, the building blocks of life itself!
Life, something that is granted to us whether we want it or not.
Not wanting life?
Not wanting to live?
They say “ The world would be a better place”.
Your brain says take this knife laying in your hand and put it away.
They are just words,
But they don't know how these words can turn into knifes and the cycle repeats.
