You are a stranger
yet nothing in you is strange to me.
I know you entirely
and not at all.
I have seen your secrets -
by your trust,
they are mine to know;
by my oath,
they are mine to keep.
I have traced the traces of your life;
I have seen your labors written
on your face -
your hands -
your womb.
I have seen your pain
and touched the bruise
I have held your hand.
I have held your heart.
Unknowing,
you hold mine.

Incidentally, I am not a serial killer - this is about anatomy lab, and dedicated to the donors.
