THE WEB

another sky disappears

there are no more doors 

only stars in a window 

a splendid reflection

the avalanche of reminisce

feeding suffocated wishes

hopeless severed lines 

call the waste of time 

lost fear stays obscure 

the darkness ever tied 

across my eyes

the shadows jump and climb 

keeping safe the remains 

a lock to a chain

the wait tightens as I hang

a tightly woven web 

and here is where

I fear you less

Splendid poem, very vivid. The emotions are wonderfully portrayed and the feeling of wanting to protect one's self from the numerous things in the world for their many reasons is very understandable, I find this poem easily relatable and very well penned. thank you for a wonderful poem.

nice work. you've certainly spun a strong one with deep wording and imagery. great metaphor. kinda dark which makes wonder if it is a black widow maybe. i wonder who or what will be caught up in it. yikes, i'm staying away from it ... :)

These words are beautifully expressed though sadness in between the lines, I truly like this poem.
