She is silent
She listens well
Observe she does
She speaks not much
Aloof she not
Soul sisters since first meet
You trust her
She knows your secrets
She pretends she cares
Advice she gives
She says its best
Listen to her you do
A mistake it was, you then realize
She is watching you from a corner
She smiles, the evil smile
Her plan worked she thinks
You seek for her help
She is no more
“How did she change?” you wonder
Backstab she did
She used you
She maneuvered so well
You were blinded
You danced to her tunes
She pulled your strings
She was the one
The real puppet master
How long can she carry this on?
A year or two?
Her cover blows up
Now she is out in the open
One by one her puppets she loseth
You hear her no more
“What’s next?” you think
The calm before the storm you feel
She is silent
