Silver Pen Knife
It called to her in a way no other blade
had called to her before – and she knew,
she knew the calling of those blades,
how they begged
for her skin, her blood
But this was different:
it didn't want her blood, but gentle hands
that caressed the smooth steel, kept it clean,
kept it pure –
It wasn't so she would use such a blade
but just that she would admire
its design
And if she could admire any sort of blade like that…
maybe, it meant things would change.
