Paper Cuts
by Angela Yuriko Smith
Love is a razor
like these photos that I keep.
Painful reminders
forever preserved
on stiff paper, stiff like you—
a paper cut love.
I should rip them all
like I ripped through your soft skin
shattering your rules
and your brittle bones.
You were not the final girl…
Still, I’ll remember.

Spreading the Writer's Word 
A delectably dark poem.
Good one with a power-punch, Angela!!
