New Entry, Old Poem

This one is called The Blade, written, really for someone I sort of used to hurt myself. Don't ask... just know that I'm much better now. ;P

The Blade

Find me a knife that hurts and cries
And bleeds, and fades, and finally, dies
Find me that knife, and look at the blade
You'll see what I see when I look in your eyes

Show me a rainbow in black and white
And show yourself how I feel tonight
Color my rainbow and make me yours
A butterfly's wings, but a sparrow's flight

Witness a picture, an image behold
Know deep inside it the truth shall unfold
What is your picture of your love for me
Warm, brightly colored... or graying and cold

Listen to music without any sound
Losing yourself where emotion abounds
Play me your music on instruments fair
Watch my soul dancing, and spinning around

Take me to someplace that doesn't exist
We'll go there together and never be missed
When we are nowhere we shall have no names
There'll are no temptation, for we shan't resist

Give me a diamond without any shine
For though I am yours, you will not be mine
Treasure a gemstone, or silver and gold
The web you are weaving they cannot unwind

Find me a heart without any pain
And you'll see a person with nothing to gain
You have my heart and I have your hand
If you will not have me should I love again

Music is fickle and rainbows will fade
But I can hold onto the love we have made
That knife you have brought me is special, you see
For I am the handle, and you are the blade
