In the Spider's Web
January 5, 2024
I thought I had you wrapped around my finger,
Turns out you were in my head
I thought I had you wound up so tight,
Now I'm the one who's dead
The ears of my heart, I listened to;
They eventually made me deaf
Completely oblivious to your true nature,
I wish I would have left
Now it is too late,
As the dread spreads through my chest
I was tempted by Fate,
Even though I knew what was best
She drew me in with those Three Words;
The ones I shouldn't have said
And now I pray for an end to the hurt,
Caught in the Spider's Web

This is a sonnet describing a man cursing love, as it has led him to be caught in a "spider's web."
Despite better judgment, he couldn't resist, and now he can only pray that it ends soon.
