To the moon
The web you spun
With your magical fingers
And words,
Reached all the way
To the moon.
You took me
To the moon,
So I grabbed it –
And it melted
Right in my hands.
Now I stand
With silvery blob
In my hands,
As it slips through
My clutches.
Now our moon has gone
And so have you…
Only a web remains
And I am caught in it
Speechless and in the dark.
