Knife Turned Freedom Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEFF GGHD IIJJ

That knife you drove into my backA
A silver truth on a shadowed trackA
It cut me deep it made me bleedB
Yet carved the strength I came to needB
-
The blade that sought to make me fallC
Became the key to break it allC
It sliced the chains it split the tiesD
It freed my soul it cleared my skiesD
-
Your treachery sharpened cruel and slyE
But I rose stronger I learned to flyE
The scar you left became my songF
A hymn of power fierce and strongF
-
You thought the wound would end my fightG
But I found fire within the nightG
The knife you gave a gift disguisedH
It cut away your web of liesD
-
So thank the hand that sought to harmI
It armed me with a brighter charmI
The steel you pressed became my keyJ
Unlocking the life you ll never seeJ
