Smile on her face reaching the eyes
Appears as though she’s listening to your voice
She’s intense in her gaze
So full of sympathy and understanding
And her mission is simpler than you know.
The pulse points, weak spots, places to hurt deep
Have to be exposed for her
To do the work she’s intent on in the name of something higher
She will watch and wait a venemous snake
Her attack may not even be nigh.
Watch out for her she sits patiently
Biding her time to show off her craft
She sees herself as a public service always obliging
Her work is devious and scheming, masked as smiling and sweet
Spins a web of lies all around you tightly.
She’ll lean in one day to give you that hug
The eyes seem filled with love
Her hand you’ll feel run the length of your spine
And you know the pain as she digs in the knife
Another mission completed by the smiling assassin
She will calmly walk out the door.
