Challenge of the Week CXXV
Attachment and Fear. Two sides of the same coin. The desire to control, to grasp, to cling. Write about attachment, or fear, or both. Fiction or non-fiction, poetry or Prose.
To Cling
I am like a spider,
Throwing out my web
Hoping it will catch.
I am like a tree,
Growing out my root
Hoping I will find water.
But cobwebs can be brushed away.
Trees can be burned.
Trust can be betrayed,
And connection can hurt.
