Predator and Prey
An animal approaches very slow
In fear that it may be hurt.
It is not stupid because it knows.
So in fear, he stays alert.
Never guard down. Always guard up
And, always, in fear of pain.
All it takes is one opportunity
And it can be in danger to be slain.
His trust is limited, as the same as mine.
And his reason why is understandable and true.
I fear my predator the same as he,
So I will question, “Can I trust you?”
In fear that it may be hurt.
It is not stupid because it knows.
So in fear, he stays alert.
Never guard down. Always guard up
And, always, in fear of pain.
All it takes is one opportunity
And it can be in danger to be slain.
His trust is limited, as the same as mine.
And his reason why is understandable and true.
I fear my predator the same as he,
So I will question, “Can I trust you?”
