The Edge

A dull blade

Can do more damage

In self mutilation

But the color of blood

Never changes

Despite the velocity

Of blood flow.

Breaking a bone

Won’t make a sound

When you’re alone,

So try and blindfold the truth

And the lies will fall

Upon deaf ears.

Tying your arms behind your back

Still won’t make you

Run faster.

So enter the dungeon

In your mind

To face the nameless beast

Before your soul

Becomes a lair

Guarded by the dragon.

Lots of food for thought here...
