White Widow Love

The widow spins her web of lies
telling more each day
then she sits and waits
looking for her pray

When a man draws near her
she pounces right away
then she pins more lies on him
making sure he'll stay

Throughout the years she uses him
taking his energy
while everyone around them 
wonders why he doesn't see

The widows spread her poison
and now he's too far gone
but soon she will out grow him
it really won't be long

He will not know what hit him
he thought they'd rise above
but now he's got to realize 
that's a white widows love
