The Dagger Called Love
By Sam Tumblin
A dagger to the heart was the weapon of love,
A cruel little gift from the heavens above.
Once it penetrated, I pulled closer instead,
As if pain were the promise that love had said.
I should have retreated, should have turned away,
But my heart had its reasons my mind couldn’t sway.
Each twist brought a longing, each wound left a scar,
Yet I chased the affection, no matter how far.
For love can be tender, yet ruthless and blind,
Leaving reason and caution somewhere behind.
And sometimes the dagger that tears you apart
Is the one you keep holding close to your heart.
