You were so sumptuous to me
Those hazel eyes piercing your subject
with a fire
that only you could understand
I would have covered many miles
just to hold you
and whisper in your ear
sweet secrets about us
Your insecurities consumed you
and along came the black widow
and you allowed her
to crash our private party
Our love was never the same
after those eight legs inserted herself
into a special private place
that was reserved for you and I
She was clever and poisonous
you made it so easy
as you wore your fears
on your sleeve
Her own life
she lost control of many years ago
her new role
was to take control of yours
Trickery was her forte
she relished in it
teaching you to hurt me
was too easy a task
You were too weak to fight her
she fed you
and her meal
was too delicious for you to resist
There you are
alone with your spider
and here I am
waiting for a real man
