The Knife Poem by Paige DeRogatis

Come closer to me my dear friend

And cleanse my dark impurity

Comfort me with your disguise

And be my strong security


Threaten all my enemies

correct my imperfection

Paint my flaws with fatal blood

And damage my reflection


Lure me to believe your lies

Punish me with deadly pain

Tear apart my fragile mind

Slowly make me go insane


You're my only true companion

Whose faithfulness I can depend

You'll be there for me when I die

For you will cause my fateful end
