who taught you the words
to say to me?
You have the face of a stranger
with blue eyes the stranger
for being behind such a tongue.
You have the face of a stranger
but the voice of a shadow
the one behind me
always whispering the half lies
after all the man who tells a half lie
has sold the bastard child of truth
sold him into darkness with weeping and gnashing of teeth
and who are you to speak with such a voice
to use such weeping against me?
Who sent you with this message
to freeze the very heart of me?
Do not give me that with your knife tone
Do not hand me the handle of that dagger.
After all it is only said that
I cannot shoot the messenger.
