Revelations Page 6

  I went to a college just like yours. Perhaps we had a class together. Perhaps we were friends. You might have invited me to your parents’ house for dinner. I know your mother.

  You will never notice me. I sit on the fringes of your reality, biding my time. This is because you notice nothing around you. Your perfect world consumes your every waking thought. So, I wait.

  It will be too late when you do finally see me. I will have made my move. I may be just another back in the crowd. Another face on the street. Perhaps I am one of the concerned onlookers attempting to help you. Perhaps I am your cherished friend weeping crocodile tears over your body.

  You will never know me because you don’t really know anyone.

  But I know you.

  And I see you.
