As the knife cuts through the skin
Of this beautiful being
The fluids flow out
And the scent of death fills the room
As the knife cuts deeper
My eyes swell in tears
But this is something that must be done
As the knife continues through
I know this is for the good
But this was such a wonderful being
As the knife reaches the end
I relize what I did
And as more tears fall
I relize I murdered the onion
Author notes
The one day i was cutting onions for my mom, and you know when you chop onions you cry cause of the fumes they give off, well she had said to me "Are you crying cause i made you murder the onion?"... And that gave me this idea. It's funny when little stuff like that makes you think of funny poems like this! Thanks mom!

Use spellcheck. Posting something that has so many spelling errors is less likely to gain the attention you desire. People will not take you seriously. I was not expecting the ending. Interesting twist.

I loved the random twist in the end. This confused me in school that one day.
