This Isn't what I had in Mind

Do you believe
In reincarnation?

I'd like to think so
But, I can't help feeling
I'd return from the afterlife
As something unpleasant

Arachnophobia
The greatest terror of all
Keeps me from wishing
To be a spider on the wall

It's always bothered me
Why do spiders fall?

Why do they look
Like they hate themselves?

Could that terrorist
On the ceiling
Dangling above your head
Be a loved one
Or a close friend
Paying you a visit?

Forced to exist
In the corners
Of our minds

Once in sight
Fear takes hold
This isn't what I had in mind
When I woke up
But, it's time again
To say goodbye
