An interesting analogy likening his relationship with his sword to that of lovers. I suppose what he does with the weapon is an intimate act. Affecting life by taking it away can be considered deeply personal. I wonder how much of this is really Turin describing the dark mirror of his own soul, the shadow that cloud his mind. Is it the sword he thinks is filled with rage or his own subconsciousness finding expression by way of his perception of the blade.

This has given me food for though.

A very powerful poem. The metaphor of a sword being like a lover is both beautiful and chilling.
