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.
