I Know



I got it. Now I know something about you.
I know that you smile.You smile.
When you look into the mirror.
I know that you laugh when you open your eyes in the morning.
I know that you die every night to sleep.
Yeah I know that you die to sleep.
Are you a demon?
Residing in a human body!
I don't know that but,
I know that you put your glasses off
When you look in the mirror.
I know that you camouflage in rain.
I know that your eyes are in pain.
And I also know
That you don't eat humans, unlike us.
I know that you drink coffee in the day and poison at night.
Why you die to sleep?
I want to know.
I know that you're careless
You forget things,dates, meaning.
I know that you're a good reader.
You read faces,faces,faces.
But I also know you're a terrible writer.
I know that you can't even write your name.
By the way, what's your name?
I don't know that, either.
But there's something interesting that I know.
I know that you dream.
I got it.
You die every night to dream.
