I am a sword

Sharp around the edges

But smooth in the center
I am a sword

Protective by your side

Fighting to the death to keep you safe
I am a sword

Always willing to clash

It takes a lot to damage me.
I am a sword

Unsteady and hard at first

Your life saver in the end

"Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius. And its better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. And when it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, I'm already better than them."
