He looks human to me.
I had no reason to doubt him.
He showed me undiluted love,
I had no reason to doubt him.
He acted as my anchor
I had no reason to doubt.
After many years of companionship
My blindfold fell off,
Revealing a monster, a creature I had no idea existed.
A creature clothed in scales,
Eyes eerie, tongue like a serpent's
Hissing at me, making rattling sounds.
I am confused, is he still human?
How did he come to be?
I thought I knew him,
Alas! he is not the person I knew.
I go down memory lane
The memories we both shared are gone.*
My eyes are opened to reality
I see him for who he truly is.
He still does not know I see the reality.*
He thinks I am still blindfolded,
No! I am not anymore.
For it is time to set myself free.
My blindfold has fallen off my eyes.
I am liberated!
I am free!
I can see him for who he is
His deceit is clear to me.
His conditional love now stinks to me.
