My web of lies,
Pulling you in.
Strangely pretty,
Deceptively sweet.
Making you blind
To the truth coming
From behind.

It's gonna smack you
Upside your head,
Barrel through your soul,
Shatter your heart.
You will look back with
Regret from the start.

Blissful ignorance....
You had it in your grasp.
Then you just had to go and ask.
And now there you are,
Wallowing in knowing.
Let me reveal myself...
Just call me Black Widow.

We do that so often to ourselves.  Knowing something is not right, but afraid to ask because we fear the outcome...and then, asking.  Even the mate of the Black Widow knows that his chances of survival in the encounter are low...but he just has to try.  Nice one, Kynder.  Hardrock

Unfortunately, this is quite accurate. I know several people like this. Beautifully put... as much as it stings to read it.

Brings one person to mind...  I survived but just barely and not in the best mental health.  I'm all healed now though.  Very well written.

kynder, excellent poem and yes it stings with the venom of a poison spider.

screaming? why must not death be redefined? we shut our eyes we stretch out our arms and whirl on a pane of glass-patti smith

Wow Kynder!
Top notch!
I have known such people too! There's a story by Hanns Heinz Ewers ... (sorry, was about to babble aimlessly   )
