Webs of Life

Spiders; spiders everywhere
They are here and they are there
Slowing spinning, a web they weave
Trying to entice and deceive
Many things are caught and not let go
Poor little souls, they just don’t know
For when their caught, they can’t get out
A life is lost without a doubt
Webs are spun throughout life
Only to bring grief and strife
So watch very carefully before you move
Before you know you’re stuck in the groove
So think twice before opening that door
A soul is gone forever more
