The Knife

Yuri,
as elegant as a knife is, danger comes with it.
and so are you.

The closer you come to a knife, the more you can feel its beauty,
untill the point you start to feel the fear.
and so are you.

one can admire how gracefully a knife cuts,
till it cuts in to your heart.
and so are you.

Im sorry. i cant get cut.
again.
