My Dear
The most ornate of them all
Tempered steel, razorblade edges
Pinprick point,
Detailing of a master craftsman on the horizontal hilt
Twisted steel handle with 20 carrot gold inlay
Diamond studded bottom extending into
A skull crusher carved to a rose
The most innocent heart of them all
Left, right ventricle flow
Pulse pulse, pulse pulse.
Carry life through lively veins
Slow for nothing
My dear, of sharpened steel
Hold her near
Keep her in the nicest crystal case
Held by mahogany wood
Diamond studded sterling silver stand
Polish her everyday
Keep razor edges pristine
Keep the alluring handle fixture as attractive as possible
I give my dear to you, I have no choice
Pray she doesn’t betray you too.

Thank you, I'm glad the contrast satisfied you, often I find destruction to be or the means of which to be beautiful.
