we part.
Take the knife,
scar my heart.

Powerful!
As you begin, I thought you were shooting for melancholy: "Dear friend, we part.", but your next two lines surge with brutality: "Take the knife, scar my heart." Such courage! I get a sense of dark eagerness to bear the sweet pain as a tribute or rememberance. Definitely depression. Nice job relaying this emotion. I can feel the yearning, the pain, the clinging to the agony. Very well done! Thank you for entering this!
