In an upside-down garden

0 posted 2003-03-27 07:05 PM



Life entangled in this
intricate design
she weeps for normality
and a sense
of anything unlike
what it is now.
In the corner
lies the innocent victim
who's heart she entrances
with her spells
licking tears of anxiety
and dependance
from his face
as she watches from afar.

He knows not
of the spell she casts upon him
nor does she mean
to entrance him as she
bats her eyelashes
in his direction
glancing over the rims
of her black metal glasses
as he waits for her last
sign of affection to cross his lips
and for an absolution to arrive.

Sticky sweet and
slowly dripping
as her heart skips
a beat and she waits
knowing the obvious
shall appear all too soon
she licks her lips and
circles her prey
pity having lurred him,
carelessly away
falling into her trap
as if blind
she carefully approaches her prey.

Longing in his eyes
she sees
two brown mud
puddles of affection
the dream she knows
never can come true
his purpose he must serve to her
the job he is meant to do
a feast for the queen
of seduction
she spins him
spun inside of her web.

Face creasing with alarm
he watches her
every move as she spins
her web tighter around him,
capturing him
though he was already her captive
he understands
what she wanted in the beginning
was only
a dinner companion
but he loves her
just the same.

Im not sure if this makes any sense whatsoever... I was just thinking about this

Hmmm... I got the sense that there were two stories being told here. One about a black widow, and one about the control that a lot of women have over their men. *hugs* beautifully written Allysa. You never cease to render me speechless for a few minutes

If I love you enough will you feel it over the distance?
