    Cut

                  The loss of a father, a cut.
                  The loss of a mother, a gouge.
                  The loss of a pet, a slash.
                  The loss of a friend, a wound.
                  The loss of a sibling, a stab.
                  The loss of a spouse, a sever.
                  The loss of a child, a gash.
                  Drip...Drip...Drip, the heart bleeds.
                  Bleeds out..cold..lifeless..finished.
