Poem

Her pen is poised, 
Her mind, unruffled 
A strange smile plays on  her lips. 
The knife caged in  her  iron grip 
Glistens in the moonlight,
Today, she shall set her lover free. 

As the first word  gets  etched, 
The blade she holds pierces her skin. 
She winces as blood oozes through the wound, 
Inking the words she  writes. 

With  each word  she inscribes, 
Deeper delves the knife, 
Mercilessly lacerating each muscle 
That dares to stand in its way. 

She writhes in agony. 
Tears flow  unbridled as
She wrestles the stranglehold  
Of the pain trying to conquer her. 

Her  fingers slowly turn numb. 
She knows not how much more she can write. But she perseveres. 
Because today, 
She shall set her lover free. 

She twists the  knife and thrusts it deeper.
The overpowering pain 
Becomes her ally now. 
It keeps her awake. 
It edges her on. 

She writes until she can no more. 
Its time for her to leave. 
Clutching his last letter to her heart, 
She sinks to the ground. 
He thought she is perfect for him, 
She knows she never will be. 
Her BROKEN and FLAWED self 
Is unworthy of him. 
He deserves no one like  her. 

She wants him to live a worthy  life, 
One that unshackles him from her. 
Ergo today she offers herself to Him, 
To set her lover free.
