spider

spider

my love is a witch
a pretty witch
with dark hair
and
cold skin
she keeps me for herself

she sees my eyes
they look at others

she chopped off my legs
and
turned me into a spider

i eat flies
and
scurry about the place
following her from room to room

i watch her
everyday
brushing her hair
in the mirror
she is so beautiful
it melts my heart

she tells me
i will have my legs back
when i no longer need my eyes
