I knew you,

I have seen you,

I have seen this coin,

The coin on both sides,

The best and the worst,

I have seen it already,

I know the misery you cause,

To know is always better,

The known fact cautions me,

It cautions me from everything,

Every trouble and misfortunes.


Something is unknown,

It is really a threat to me,

I don't know the disaster you cause,

I knew not the crime you did,

I judged a book by it's cover,

But this book turned out to be danger,

The most worst of all I knew,

The new coin lying on the road,

If left untouched is good,

But the other way is a disaster,

The unknown disaster on the way.


Knowing seems scary,

I am afraid to know,

The truth about you,

The curtains of the stage opens,

So does my heart pounds,

But the truth is unleashed,

The unknown is waiting,

Quite, silent and still,

But just as the sea is raising,

It raised up from it's tranquility,

It washed away my life completely,

It was a complete disaster.
