Spider's Web
So here I am again
in redundancy I'll say hello
living life behind this screen
dreaming of a world most obscene
I wait, eager for response
Clicking refresh once more
My world inside a spider's web
in this fantasy I'm still no celeb
I can hear the sound of keystrokes
breaking the silence of a lost voice
Speaking only in the form of text
This part of me the world rejects
I'm at wits end words falling loose
and landing upon so bright a screen
breaking away the ever growing darkness
as my existence fades into evanescence
I'll take only this brief moment here
and wish those of you I remember farewell
For as this night descends to black
It is time that my real life is taken back
