Cold Death

icy platinum double bladed
   
 through the thick night stealth 
   
 darkened sheets of eve faded 
   
   
   
 it starts with little jabs 
   
 in a blink of an eye 
   
 cross my cheek and abs
 
   
 blood stained I cry 
   
  no defense I find 

   
 it comes in for the kill 
   
 now from behind 
   
 through my rib cage ..i can’t feel 
   
   
   
 what I believe to be cold platinum 
   
 is the warm life flowing from me 
   
 who is this bedlam 
   
 face down no worries I am free
