black widow
I spied her coming close to me
Carefully, so I did not flee—
But she was only, from the start:
A spider closing in on me.
She snuck into my severed skin,
Sneaking suspicions of my sin;
Then buried herself in my heart—
Her web had settled deep within.
Threads stronger than steel wove around,
Legs gripping me without a sound.
I felt numb as I fell apart:
My feelings lost and never found.
i've had the middle stanza done for ages but i didn't know what to do with it
so i just made something up lol
