The Dagger
I’m reminded of you in everything and everywhere.
You’re the coolest thing for the eyes to see.
The most beautifully crafted piece in the collection.
The harmless object when it’s inside its box.
I see you in the sharpness of everything and everywhere.
You’re the scariest thing for the heart.
The deadliest weapon for the soul.
The sharpest tool in the drawer.
Yet so small,
Still cuts so deep.
If only you were made differently.
