Strangers

Once, out of the clear window I saw through
Life that strolls and passes by, with innocent eyes
A wave or smile at the guest, a friend I haven’t met
That stranger I came to know as You

You, the person who took me from behind my shield
That protected me from all harm and corruption
You, who told me that I would be safe from all enemies,
I never knew I had but one enemy: You

Never did I expect a blow so hard from your hands it flew
Stabbing me, stabbing me right into my heart
The pain! Oh, it was terrible, excruciating, unbearable
Most painful because it came from you

Your fucking carnage was meant to kill
It wounded me right in my heart, where life flowed
Yet I died not, bled not
A beast or warlock, what the hell are you?

You, so kind, and all other the sweet words I knew
But lurking inside, a monstrous beast!
Who taught me all I needed to know
About life malicious, all that was You

Now, You might know not how I feel
Heart of virtue murdered, mind of vengeance replaced
Searching for its prey, its very first prey
To drink its blood, the blood of You
