There is something familiar about your face I have seen somewhere before Should I know who you are? There is something familiar about your voice I have heard somewhere before Should I know who you are? There is something familiar about this fear I have felt once before Now I know who you are You are my demon, my nightmare You are the one who took my innocence Now I know who you are You have stolen my childhood, my dreams You are my destroyer I know you well I remember every stroke of your hand Even to the smallest demand I know you well I can still taste the bitter kisses And beating of my heart in my chest Should I hate you this much? I thought you were bigger Stronger somehow I guess you were then I thought you would be scarier Intimidating to me I guess you were then But not now Not any longer I don’t know you at all MWilson aka Lyn Eagleton 11/15/2001 |
