Spider-web Faith
Spider-web faith won't hold pain,
cannot ensnare loneliness,
fails to capture grief.
And should despair wander that silken road,
should sadness flutter against that silken rope,
spider-web faith will disintegrate,
its stray ends floating
down.
Spider-web faith always disappoints.
Spider-web faith always disappears,
But not before strangling hope.
Spider-web faith won't hold pain,
cannot ensnare loneliness,
fails to capture grief.
And should despair wander that silken road,
should sadness flutter against that silken rope,
spider-web faith will disintegrate,
its stray ends floating
down.
Spider-web faith always disappoints.
Spider-web faith always disappears,
But not before strangling hope.
