Witch Of The Web
Retribution is mine payback time

I don’t need my web of silk to pull you to me
My temptation is a lure that calls out mystery
You’ll walk into my trap and won’t know why
You’ve lost your wings and now can’t fly
Once I have you I’ll weave my web tighter still
Then with dark dreams and lies your soul I’ll fill
Try to escape from me and I’ll yank your chain
Pulling you back into this hell once again

I don’t need to use poison but I’ll drip it on you
Feel my venom slowly working its way all through
You’ll weaken and feel so drained by my bite
That you’ll cede and live entirely in night
You’ll lose any will to exist without my touch
Although it degrades and hurts you so much
Just try to leave me and you’ll feel the pain
As I pull you back into my web yet again

I don’t need to use chains to hold you bound
My voice binds you with its melodic sound
The bars that imprison and hold you with me
Are silk threaded lies spun so deceptively
You walked into a trap because I delight in this
Enjoy watching you writhe under my spider kiss
You can’t leave I won’t let you fly high or free
You’ll stay here desperate through all eternity

I don’t need to use force to tie you in pain
My web of deceit binds you in a silken chain
Captured like a fly in a spider’s web so fine
Look into my eyes and understand you’re mine
I don’t want you but you’ll never be free of me
Never will you be released from this misery
Don’t try to go because you can’t ever break away
I’m a witch of the web and here’s where you’ll stay

WOW!WOW!!!WOW!!!!Well, I know you aren't her (your softness and love gives you away) but you sure have painted a scary picture of a woman who is out to prey on unsuspecting men. BRAVO!!!This is so powerful it is scary.. **big hugs**

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

Marsha,
Retain me, Restrain Me, Overtake my brain and drain me.
Hold me for eternity, even if you're hurtin' me.
No need for silken strands to bind, a more willing prey you'll never find.
Would you think the less of me, if I mailed myself to thee?



Roger

Dear Witchie-Poo,

Please give me a 3-day pass.  My granny is ailing and I need to take her some chocolate chip cookies.   heh, that lil flirt won't see through this bald faced lie, and I'll be free at last!

Karen darling girl I think we've all met a witch or two, although this wasn't based on anyone I know. I do know the tricks they pull. Actually this was written to show just how awful some souls are. And because I like to show the dark side to Dave now and then. He wanted dark and deadly so he got it.

I'm glad I'm not as bad as this, but with practice..... No I'd run for the band aid but it was nice to pretend.

Kathleen darling girl You’d be surprised Why! Actually it’s more a case of why not. Don’t you think a bit of witch suits me? A little bit of dark and spooky? Nooooooo Oh well, better luck next time. That’s the problem I have a crisis of credibility, a plausibility problem. No one will buy this witchy disguise

YI YI YI....don't let the web catch me...
For the silk she spins is from pure hell
and our soul to her we will now sell.
For Mushy writes so well of this witch..
Got me going,  got me in a stitch...
