Harmless

I am soft, and scared.
I will pretend, and hide.
Stay still.
I, spider.

I am harmless.
I'm no threat.
Tiny spider.
Helpless friend.

What can I do, against you?
I can hope, that's all.
Creep and hide upon the wall.
Must stay still.
Pray that I'm not seen.
Pray that no one sees me step,
or knows where I have been.

I am harmless.
I'm no threat.
Tiny spider.
Helpless friend.

Help me hide.
I can't fight back.
Keep me safe.
Right on track.

I'm no threat.
