Knife in one hand
and your life in your other.
When did it become a choice
between living and dying?
I used to know someone so full of life
that outshone the stars every day and night.
I don’t know where she went,
but she’s not the broken person I see before me.
When did it become a choice
between help and pride?
Knife in one hand
and both our lives in the other.

This was written about my mom. There was a time when all you would ever see was a smile on her face but not now.
