The Cross and the Blade

I see the blade in your hand, and I figured…..
Somehow that blade is small, but it can cut deeply through the heart and make it bleed!
In your other hand I see bandages to take care of my heart when it is dying or injured!
Oh! how your words filled my heart to the manner that it felt like it was being given loving feed!

I was in serious doubts about life and love until we started to speak.
Wow, the bandages were thrown as the blade pierced my heart 
Sometimes it feels like my mind and my heart are meek. 
You realize what you have done, well, it’s too late as my heart will not start

The Cross is guarding my heart from the receipt
That your untruthfulness and envy have written
Because your kisses are full of deceit 
Like the venom one has inside of them after being bitten

The Cross has barred you from me
My crazy little Pea
