Life's Web

                    Life's Web

The web of lies, was spun so well,

Intricate patterns, so...no one could tell;

Where truth or lie...did unfold,

Lace filled plots, with truth...not told.

The weaver knew untold patterns of lace,

Unrecognized...by change of face.

Woe to the believer, caught in life's web;

Where pain abounds and the hearts...unfed.

Scenic views, that touched...love's face,

Where unknown lies could not replace;

The snares set for the unsuspecting few;

Entangled lives...when truth is not knew.

The web of lies...spun like fine lace,

Erased all happiness... from the face.

For when all truths,  would finally unfold;

Lies held less pain, then facts...when told.

For spun so well, was the web of lies,

The captive had...no place to hide.

"Untangle me, from this dreamlike snare;

Tear down the webs, until all truths... are bared".

But...the web of lies, had been spun so well;

Not one of those involved..... could tell.

Where all of the falsehoods came to an end,

And... the complete truth... began.
