Spider silk

【I wrote a poem in Japanese and translated it into English.】

Various clinging binds the heart

Until before, I could have talked about
ideals with a slurred lie.

Nowadays, various obstacles get in the way

Clinging is like a chain

Tighten my body like a cobweb.

Get stuck

And

A spider that feeds on its heart

Coming from somewhere

They're going to attack me.

I'm scared, so I run away

But where?

How far can you escape?

The clinging spider caught me

Trying to melt my heart and drink

I close my eyes because I'm scared.

There are no eyelids in the heart

The clinging spider tasted me

I'm going to get serious about eating it
soon.
