The Spider and the Fly
Bound by the soul through love in the
good times and pain in the hard times,
Trying to unravel and be free like a fly in a
spiders web,
Just one more thrust should break him
loose but there always seems to be one
single stand that keeps him binded in this
deadly noose,
The spider ever so slowly inches closer to
her suffering prey,
Knowing this will surely be the last
moment the fly will ever see the light of
day,
Fighting for his life now the fly becomes
more and more confined in his soon to be
tomb,
This will surely be his imminent doom,
Just one look into the spiders eyes causes
the fly to be paralyzed,
Almost as if he hypnotized by her
Splender,
He realizes there is no escape as she
begins to reel him in,
He now feels her beginning to devouring
his soul,
He has given up and most definitely lost
all control.
