This is for you...

Trapped in a web of mediocrity
I twist and turn
Writhing in agony
Trying to break free
Seduced by the unreachable
I dived headlong
Into the web
Of the cruelly awaiting malicious arachnid of scorn
Blood flows
But it is not from wounding
It is from the heart being ripped within
And they leave red streaks
Running down the expanse of my browned skin
I have tasted from the forbidden fruit of Eve
And now my hunger pangs increase
I beat my fists upon invisible demons
Madness welling up within my soul
This pain
So exquisite
Almost too much to bear
Yet I am enraptured
A silent sigh escapes,
As my elixir of spirit dissipates
And fatigue overtakes.
