Gilded Blade

Steel, gilded and sharp was the knife that cut through her heart. It's blade piercing deep into the soul.  Blood spilling onto the floor in this place of haunted lives. Never again to love as before, never again to shine in happiness. This life cut short by this tool of steel. Anger, fear, and hopelessness appearing where once was confidence and cheer. Destruction of all hope has become apparent. The knife's stainless steel now covered in blood had still kept it's shine. The deed had been done, she now lay lifeless on the floor haunted by steel, gilded and sharp.
