Hypnotized against Love's paradox,
trusted clarity slices innocent strands;
beauty remains merely a figment,
pooled in the aftermath
of a razor's charm.

The 'love'(r) is the razor, this is not at all about suicide

A great piece of darkness here... and no I can see it's not about suicide, more about the aftermath that can be left after love is betrayed!

oh so sad

I enjoyed your word usage here quite a bit: slices, razor's, pooled, etc ... you painted a picture of suicide here (a tad too emo for my liking) but have been able to pull it off nicely
thank you for your entry
