I Know My Killers Name
I know my mothers name,
I know my fathers too,
Brothers, sisters, uncles, sons,
I know them all, I do.
I know my teachers names,
My friends and foes, it's true,
My aunts, my gran's and grandads,
I know them all, I do.
I know the names of flowers,
And colours of each hue,
Of bridges, domes and towers,
I know them all, I do.
I know the names of doctors,
I now know quite a few,
And they taught me another name,
And one day they will you.
I know the name of my killer,
And now my killer knows mine,
And one day we'll meet each other,
And our names will forever entwine.

Refreshingly different . leading to a sort of inevitability draws us in, and the last line of each verse gives it a nice twist.
