When love is the scalpel…

It won’t change
It’s forever
The way I feel
The way I KNOW
The way the deepest part of me
Is bound
But I also understand
I see
The hurt too great to bear
The knife I have unwittingly been wielding
Slashing
At your heart
So I’m trying to drop the knife

I am not
the wrap you need
to bind these wounds
I wish that I could be your healer
But I’m not

I AM the knife
Slashing
At your heart
So here is my white flag
Here is my retreat

My heart will never change
But my heart is the knife
Slashing
So I’ll walk it to the forge
To burn and melt
I’ll try to fade
For you
