I smile as I see you
Hold the bloodied knife
Above your head.
Whats the matter?
Too scared to scab
Me in the back
Again?

You've done it before,
Whats different now?
Don't play an innocence,
Repention card on me.
I've heard it too many
Times,
To believe for a moment
That you might not be
Lying through your pearly white teeth.

Come on, stab me
While I lie here at your feet,
Ready to take the final blow.
Whats the problem?
is it that this time,
You're holding my knife,
Instead of your own.

This reminds me of a song where this guy is going to cut his girl's head off and he spends all this time talking about how great it will be and what he is going to do afterward, then he moves to do it and the blood ends up running down cold around his own neck and she has cut his head off instead. I think its kinda funny. Its a fatal love/hate relationship. lol. This poem though seems more like maybe the backstabber has been using her knige so long that maybe she just doesn't know how to use yours or realizes what she's doing and gets tripped up. Pretty cool.

The song is "Headless"(imagine that)by a death metal group called Cannibal Corpse.

Nice Poem! I really feel it. I think my favorite part is the end:

"Whats the problem?
is it that this time,
You're holding my knife,
Instead of your own."

These lines I think are the most powerful in the poem. This was very well written and expressed.

Thank you for your poem.
