Spiderwebs

 Spiderwebs

9/10/2020

 

Inside my head are spiderwebs

Covered in hideous spiders.

Behind them they hide what’s in my mind

These webs, they act as dividers.

When anxiety spikes, I cannot think,

Fighting the spiders in my head,

With no weapons, no skills, no way to win,

But if the spider doesn’t end up dead

I can’t clear away the spiderweb

And reach what lies behind

I can’t breathe, I can’t see, my mind I can’t reach

In the threads I become entwined.

Everyday has become a struggle

To clear away the threads

Because if I don’t stop, or I give up,

I’ll get tangled in the webs.
