There it is again
Nagging at my mind
The thought reverberates
Like the hands of time
Can't seem to find
That peace of mind
Trapping myself
In the cage of doubt
Where happiness
Is something I can't find
It echos in my skull
A voice that sounds so dull
But it's a voice that gives me clarity
And makes me think with reason
and prosperity
I think something did happen
And I saw it
with my own eyes
Somebody doing someone wrong
Just to pass some time
There it was on my back porch the other day
It didn't say hi
When it saw my face
It peered through the glass
So thin
So frail
Right where my baby was sleeping
In her crib
Balled up like a snail
It peered over her and met my eyes
I was ready to kill that mother fucker
till it died
But instead i opened the door and said
"Hey,
Can i help you?"
It looked startled said
"Ahhh.. mosquitos"
And pointed up to the roof
Not knowing what to do i knodded
And said
"Okay."
It just turned
Hopped over the porch fence
And walked away
Maybe it was mosquitos
Or maybe a harmless gaze
Or maybe it will be someone else's baby
In a different room
On a different day
