Perplexed
Oh these things I’ve said
Things I’ve done
Chasing something down
Step by step
Slow as a leech
Barely out of touch
I don’t know what
Maybe something I will never reach
Jumping over wrecks
My mind can’t keep up
I still feel so perplexed
Words seemingly escape
Trying to find a way to say this
It’s just a jumbled mess
I think I’ve been hexed
Rummaging through the brain
I find a reason
Because I know something is hidden
Behind all that suspense.
