A Spider's Roar

Looking back on photographs
remembering how we met.
Nothing is as it seemed,
I'm shocked at how bad this could get.
Was it was it what you did or what I said
these are not the results I'd hoped I'd find.
It surfaced in our form of thinking
we have to abort our animalistic state of mind.
I viewed you as a lion
with a roar so proud and great.
Yet you were gentle enough to love me,
not knowing the ways of fate.
You viewed me as a spider
so cunning and so sly.
Sweet enough to like Charlotte
threw a party inviting the flies.
A spider is born with poison to kill,
a sly host waiting for guest to arrive.
It started out swell but the poison set in,
perfect couldn't keep this love alive.
The great lion's teeth are broken
and he has forgotten how to roar.
Now a victim to his prey
he will sleep forever more.
Burning all our photographs
I can't remember why this shocked me.
The signs were there beginning to end,
surprised by what we didn't see.
The spider will always remain cunning
and the lion never thinks he's wrong.
It's in the way we treat each other,
why they never got along.
