Premium Member Am I Crazy?
Am I crazy if it’s been five years and I still expect you to walk through the door? If I can’t give away your clothes because you might need them? Am I over the line if I fantasize that your treatment worked and you never died at all? And I laugh with you over breakfast while we sip coffee as we always did? I’m afraid to...

Premium Member Love
Take good care of your precious pain. Wrap your strong arms around it. Hold it against your warm chest. Rock it gently, telling it softly that it is loved. It is needed. It is important. It makes perfect sense. And love it, just as it is, in all of its agonizing beauty....

Now she has a great...

The Black Widow
she moves in whispers, a shadow draped in midnight silk, trailing poison kisses in the dark-- a promise, a warning, a lullaby of death. her fingers weave unseen threads, spun from sugared lies and honeyed venom, each thread a pulse, a heartbeat, a trembling thing waiting to break. men call her beautiful, never knowing beauty has teeth, has patience, has hunger that does not beg but...

Premium Member Black Widow
I came upon a widow, black, carrying a poison sac. I asked her what was in her purse. She suggested I call a hearse, giving me a terrible fright, asking if she could have a bite. Your attentions, ma'am, I rebuff. Of this chat, I've had enough. I'm afraid, kind sir, it's too late. I've already fixed your fate....

A Dying Widow
i can taste her on your lips. the stain from her lipstick is infused to the fibers on your white work shirt. I'm guessing the color is cherry red. the scent of her perfume weakens my stomach, knots my heart, takes every hope i had of our future and turns it into mud, blood boiling like shower water you washed with to scrub her touch off...

The Silent Widow
Here sits the widow silent and pale, from the heart of darkness her sorrows hail. Mournful eyes, shattered thoughts, bloodless veins and soundless calls. With her broken heart her mind would plea, her eyes are open but unable to see. A saddened look, and a tired heart, an endless journey that tore her apart. Entrapped within,...

Premium Member Widow
In the quiet aftermath, fairytale's close, A widow now, where love once arose. Memories dance of love's early spark, Newlyweds' dreams, adventures in the dark. Shopping escapades, where no one claimed the win, Shared laughter, moments tucked within. Doing life together, through joy and strife, Raising kids, navigating the journey of life. Now a widow, pain veiled in silent grace, Alone she carries a...

Premium Member Song of The Black Widow Spider No 5: ABBA
Placement perched will measure the life of them. Air begged resistance as trace lacks its forms. Mute heed legs of Black Widow Spider norms, ghostly strands of rare resilience sense strum for the secretive possessor. Kindred, most blacks, and some browns share Rama's clocks on their red or orange paunch that some do don. Due to our size, strikes are rare, flee...
