My Spider Web
He was stuck
in my spidery web
all his limbs were tied
by my glistening thread
The more he struggled
the tighter the silk
his skin turned white
white like cold milk
Terrified, he watched
me ravel him up
I pierced his neck
and put his blood in a cup
As if he had a choice
to be or not to be
such a silly phrase
to be my meal, was he
He was still alive
yet so close to death
“I loved you,” said I
and he took his last breath
in my spidery web
all his limbs were tied
by my glistening thread
The more he struggled
the tighter the silk
his skin turned white
white like cold milk
Terrified, he watched
me ravel him up
I pierced his neck
and put his blood in a cup
As if he had a choice
to be or not to be
such a silly phrase
to be my meal, was he
He was still alive
yet so close to death
“I loved you,” said I
and he took his last breath

Author's Note
This is a story about a boy who I had once loved, and I guess that it was about how he became useless to me and I gave him the gift of being useful once more.

Love at times gives us dark and twisted thoughts. But we've found the darker our thoughts the more that we cared for a person. Tight work

I enjoyed this. I was thinking how nice to be caught in your web and then got to the last line:)
