100 Poems in 100 Days Part 5

 

June 19th, 2015 5)Lovesick

Oftentimes a heart becomes the knife's sheath
mistakenly the shelter for the crime

in this intimate hangover the body
retches all good feelings
holding tightly to the hilt

when the backwards assassin
rips forth the blade from its sheath
steel's reflection is freed

but you must first let go
