Spiderwebs

by Insert-fake-name-here

People in essence are spiderwebs Each so fragile and beautiful Yet so strong and full of purpose Each molecule is connected by a strand of the web Each thought intersected Woven into another Yet separate, unique There are no two alike Though many are bland So distasteful Never living out their full potential Instead being destroyed by tiny things The fears and doubts that eat away at the delicate strands Still someway somehow the rare few so complicated Protected so carefully by their creators Manage to hold their true form Even for a second in time They capture drops of inspiration like dew As the sunlight fades the useless webs left unprotected It also catches hold of the glimmer of inspiration Suddenly transformed into a shining brilliant treasure The web can maintain these inspirations Build them into anything they desire Or they may allow them to simply lay in shadow Weighing them down Until they come crashing from their position of glory To a simple puddle of ruin
