With your precision ~ Knife ~ Cut a hole around my heart. And in your not so gentle way Pull the life of my existence. I’ll wince and murmur, Shout and groan. But I’ll walk, A ~deadman~ Right before you. Wash your hands By blood of me. Adrenaline armor Is all you’ve got. My heart just beats a little louder. Dadum, you hear my ticking doom? To fate of hope You wish you knew. I’ll show you if you’ll take a hand But I’m watching you From over here. Its light but you are in the dark… Open up your eyes, Your precision cut on me Is lacking. - And so it was that time stood still - |

like this poem. Reminds me of a song by Ben Harper called please bleed. In it he says " please bleed so I know that you are real and I know that you can feel." |

Phantom Poet, thank you again! I guess poems about cutting a heart out might stun people and grab attention, lol. I write strange, I know! ![]() craig, can see how it might remind you. Though, for me, this is about someone who even though they may tear me apart I'll help then and keep fighting. Despite that I'm left half dead. wow I scare myself sometimes lol. thank you much! Always, Alyssa - And so it was that time stood still - |

Alyssa, This is gut wrenching. But keep writing it out. Weird is good. How about unique, instead, though? Much talent, enjoyed, Hugs and love, Pat ![]() ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. |

Pat, thanks, and yes writing does help an awful lot. But I don't think unique cuts it... I'm weird! Its ok though because I don't mind!! Hugs and love to you Always, Alyssa - And so it was that time stood still - |

very nice. i enjoyed the offbeat subject of the poem immensely, in sort of sick way i guess, as much as you can enjoy a poem about that sort of pain. |

inkedgoddess, guess I got the effect across then ![]() Noah J, lol.. always happy when someone is honest, and I guess I just choose weird scenarios to describe the real ones. Its all just symbolic, don't worry! ![]() Always, Alyssa - And so it was that time stood still - |
