Spider Rain

by Star   Aug 27, 2020


The moon
unwinded
his past,
right
in front
of my eyes
that night.

The
luminous silk
that held me
surrendered
to the
humid air.

I tried
breaking out
of the darkness,
though
I still
felt your
breath
hunting me.

...
As the moon
escaped the sky
...

I
once
again
was
caught
in
webs
you
enjoyed
devouring.

    Awesome write. I have one opinion - definitely feel free to ignore. In the last stanza, you use the phrase "your webs that you're" and it made me stumble a bit. Consider "the webs that you're" maybe, or something else that either changes one instance of you're/your or perhaps separates them more.
