Hidden beneath their harsh words
Judgements
Attacks
Attempts to change you
Disdain
Lies a heart so close to yours
You wouldn’t feel a difference
If it were in your body
Your fiercest enemies
See a mirror in you
And deep down
They want to crawl inside you
Steal what they couldn’t take for themselves
And leave your carcass to rot
They are not really killers
They are a parallel version
Of you
And you
Of them
