Now you see him

You didn't hear him when he reached out to take your hand,

you didn't hear him when he stumbled through the crowd.

You didn't hear  him when he fallowed every given command,

or when he whispered his thoughts out loud.

You didn't hear him when he withdrew,

when he was no longer reaching out,

or when all he had away he threw

and his throat became to hoarse to shout.

You didn't hear him as he blamed you,

and cursed you're name.

You didn't hear his anguish,

didn't listen to his pain.

but now you do.

You didn't see him when he cowered as if behind bars,

you didn't see him as he tried to cover up the scars.

You didn't see him when he leaned against the wall,

you didn't see him when he broke you didn't notice him fall.

You didn't see him when he wandered this world alone,

you didn't see him when he left the hall.

You didn't see him before his heart turned to stone

you didn't see him while at your feet he crawled.

Now you hear him when the rage takes over,

now hear him as he fires, round one round two.

Now you hear him as time turns slower,

now you hear him, as he comes for you.

Now you see him with his gun in hand,

now you see the fire  burning from within.

Now you see him when he is giving commands

now you see the monster that lay just beneath his skin.

He could have tamed it  long ago but now, he wont.

Now you see him,

now you don't.
