Is there an owner on this ghost house? Little creatures creeping from every corner Scared and scary but mostly frightened By the very fact of their existence Speaking screaming interrupting never Listening to each other's story Never fully in agreement loosing track of perspective Mistrustful of trust and disgusted by care... Such is a mind of a once broken child Can we put him back in his cot? Can we look into his wide open eyes and believe His is the truth of suffering and search for lost hope? Should we ask the child knowing he knows not the answer? Wouldn't we confuse him furthermore Seeking answers drained from his broken core? If only the child returned to the haunted house If only he found his courage Maybe he would make sense Of all this mess. We'll just sit here and watch
