"Blade to skin/Pen to paper"

A blade to skin, sharp and cold,
A silent kiss, a story untold.
It whispers pain with every slice,
Drawing blood like ink from ice.

The skin, so tender, bares its truth,
Each mark a memory, each scar a proof.
Like paper waiting for the pen,
To write the words that shape the when.

The pen to paper, soft yet firm,
A dance of thought, a quiet squirm.
Each stroke a choice, each word a plea,
A line that stretches, setting free.

The blade may cut, the skin may tear,
But ink, once spilled, can linger there.
Both leave traces, though they differ—
One fades in time, the other withers.

A blade to skin, a pen to page,
Both write their stories, stage by stage.
One in flesh, the other in thought,
Both leave their marks, but both are sought.
