One Last Time

Once_In_A_While_

I pull the object from its hidden spot,

The lowest drawer of my old and beaten desk.

Stored there so a secret can be kept.

 

I admire it slowly,

Turning it over in clammy hands,

Watching its sharp blade shine.

 

Pressing it to my skin,

I tell myself that I can allow this,

Just one last time.
