Careful, kid

Careful, kid

Careful, kid

they carry knives in their words

And thoughts, Not until the droplets

Are seen dripping,

Not until the pain from the wound

shoots up,

when you still stand puzzled

how the grey skies, suddenly

went dark ,and turned scary,

the steel be felt inside the heart

Careful, that

they call themselves friends.
