Creep

A weird kid stares at me,

His eyes a piercing green,

I cannot help but wonder,

What on earth he's seen.

He lingers in the shadows,

And always wears a scowl,

I try to avoid his gaze,

But he always seems to prowl.

Is he here to harm me?

I cannot tell for sure,

But I cannot shake this feeling,

That he's something to endure.

Perhaps he's just misunderstood,

A lonely soul in need,

But his stare feels so intrusive,

Like a trap, I cannot be freed.

I'll keep my distance from him,

And hope he finds his way,

But this weird kid staring at me,

Leaves me paranoid each day.
