Web

These tears I’ve shed
Are trapped within your spider’s web
Like silver sparkling in light
What hurts the most
Can most delight

This trap you laid
Seemed too beguiling, unafraid
I swept within your cold embrace
The sweetest fruit
Has bitterest taste

All for your device
These tears will crystallise to ice
And shine like diamonds in the day
What promised most
Yet most betrayed

About Helen

I'm drawn to blogging as a way to share ideas and consider what makes us who we are. Whether it's in our working life or our creativity, expression is a means to connect.
