The Rusting Blade

I thought to share one of my poems here with you all.. I hope you people respect my work and don't copy. Thank you!

"The Rusting Blade"

Standing still

in that battleground

with my head held low

no, not another blow

nor the reason being defeat

but the cry

of my blade

and that's why

my head ain't held high

I tried to fight

as long as I could

rather as long

as you hid

But that hardest blow

of truth that was never known

made me to face

that deadly defeat.

Blood started to pooze out

not by the wounds

caused by thy blade

but the unhealed wounds

that the truth scratched

and wrecked open

I ain't sad

coz. of the defeat

I ain't crying

coz. you ditched me

but I am sad

& I am cryin'

cause I had to kill you

The bond

that was formed between us

which I tended with all my love and care

shouldn't have had

been broken like this

& I never knew

it would end in such a despair

Your smile

which once captivated me

I never knew

would start degrading me

Slowly you took

everything away

and left me to fight you

with this rusting blade

But I couldn't hold myself for long

After killing all

soon the death took me too

away with it

somewhere, where you

ain't there

where my life

ain't a rusting blade
