Spiderfinger

"Spiderfinger," she screams as her hands clutch my arm

Black nails, creeping behind me, and daunting me of harm

Shadows chasing me from this candle light, glowing

Long nails, fingers intertwining around me, clawing


As this heart goes, a thump - thump- ping

Wrapping me around this cobweb, wrapping

"Spiderfinger," She whispers, whispers to me

This pointy sword stabs me, as I am bleed-bleeding


Cloudy sky, eerie wings, branches shake - shaking

Head is going dizzy, as this "spiderfinger" spinning

You, limbering behind me, oh no, spider- you

Shadows creeping, shadows, oh no, it's true


Shining smile captures me whole, fangs so alarming

As she lays her eggs, darkness swipes me, coming near, coming

she is caressing me under her arms, caressing

Spinning me around, my body is itching, itching


As those jaws drool on my toes, I no longer no

If I'll come out alive, but here is one last hello

Let me give you one last whisper, darling

I loved you before we even met, heart aching
