Close to Me

I got no sense of danger
When I met her at first
Though with hindsight's cold certainty
I was always a target
From the very start
She'd been training her sights on me

I only later discovered
To her family and friends
She'd refer to me constantly
As if our casual acquaintance
Were a bigger thing
But I'm not part of her history
No I'm not part of the action
I've no part in the plot
In all honesty
She was never that close to me

When I heard of the stories
She'd been spreading around
The malevolent fantasies
I broke off any contact
Thought that was civilised
How could I have been so naive?
I've been dumb and defenceless
While she's been dogging my steps
Homicidally

She got dangerously close you see
She got dangerously close to me
