    The first time I read this I wasn't fond of the title but it does go with the poem pretty well so it's good. You always blow me away with your poems. Always. And this one is no different. The reason I liked this is because of the description of each body part being "your killer or another reason why this person hurts you" People say when you love someone you love them head to toe heart and soul. But here you twisted love and smashed it to pieces. Ha! Though this is how you are feeling now you did a great job to stay consistant through outm now for the poem itself.

    I'm a big sucker for eyes. I loved the comparison to your heart. They both connect so well. Though I think it's good I think this is your weakest line. I think if you had more deceptive in it would enhance the poem greatly. Just my opinion. The second stanza is my favorite it's brilliant actually. I know this all too well. A razor and a lovers lips can both be dangerous and a killer. Loved the use of cutting and wrists. The touch ofa lover can be deadly so I loved the use of noose here. Words are very deadly and the knife is as such. You did a great job with the imagery bbecause it enhances each metaphor well. They are not over played at all. Beautiful write
