Knife Poem by Anthony Spiros Mcgilvra

I'm searching for a knife
something that's sharp
to cut into the light
to slash at the dark
to grasp in my hand
to feel its true
so i can understand
the truth of you
I'm looking for some fire
an internal spark
to burn the liars
to kill them in the dark
I'm searching for a knife
to cut through your webs
to end my strife
and sever your heads
to cut your strings
make your master bleed
to give you wings
and uproot your weeds
I'm searching for a dagger
to stab at the sky
as i climb my ladder
and watch you die
then give you life
and watch you grow
then run my knife
straight into your soul
i cut your bonds
and set you free
by releasing you
I'm saving me
