It befriended me like
the kindest stranger,
and easily gained my deepest trust.
While I, oblivious to the impending danger,
of this treacherer whom I had so misjudged,
as benefactor, when in truth had insatiable lust,
for inflicting pain in those in need,
of reassurance from terrible thoughts
upsetting the soul, and placing mind under siege.
But as it happened many a time and time again,
that I though with open eyes so plain,
am so blind and forgiving,
that I allowed us to join, and the pain
followed the same.
