The Victimizer

He flashes his smile,
And says words so deep,
A prince so wonderful.
Any girl would weep

His blazing eyes pierce through,
Through the victims soul,
But, oh, if only they knew,
How it would burn like coal.

Did you hear him say “I love you?”
That you are so special,
Perhaps a kiss, or two?
These my friend, are superficial.

He moves on from one victim to another,
with tactics so very good,
it makes us shudder.
So fast, so cruel, so crude!

Secrets are kept,
To maintain his “reputation”,
But things have crept,
Through many a conversation.

I thought I had known him,
Known him very well,
But the light was very dim,
And everything he said would sell.

Now, I know the truth though,
And I know not what I think of it,
But as the tears go on and flow,
I feel the urge to scream, “Just quit!”

But we believe in a world of good,
Where serial killers don’t belong.
So we are doing what we should,
Goodbye hidden identity,
So long, so long..
