knife in reach

Oh dear knife in reach
so tempting
so wasteful
Yet magnificent
I want you
I have you
But I must fucking think
Of course I do
Knowledge stops me
Fear stops me
Hate mocks me
Love mocks me
Loss mocks me
The easy way out sets em all off at once
And the rest Along with it
Dare I want you?
Dare I use you?
Dear knife in reach?

So, you asked if you were doing good or not in the realm of poetry, but there is no good and bad that could be so strictly defined. Anyways, I enjoyed this because you present it honestly, It's like a true conversation with yourself. The emotions and longing are highlighted. I did enjoy this!

i like it since you repeat the words like "hate mocks me, love mocks me, loss mocks me". you are a snazzy poet.
