    Black Widow


    Trying to wash myself clean of the venom. Suffocating in my own words. Hopes and twisted dreams seeing them through all these tangled screams.
    Crying on the outside, dying more and more on the inside. Fighting this never ending dark battle with myself. Can't see straight when my head is spining in circles.
    Constant motion is making me sick. Weakness taking over from the venom and suffocation. Trying to break free from this tangled spiderweb before I become numb.

    Wow! I really like this. The imagery and language you use is very powerful. My only recommendation would be to change to form a bit to give a tighter focus on the key words and ideas. Otherwise, I really like it.

    anytime i see a spider i scream like a little girl. the idea of being tangled up in a web (usually self created)genuinely scares the hell outta me. pretty powerful imagery. personal resonance.
