Peering in, you tear the web apart
With bare hands.

Creeping crawling, you stare
At the horde I’ve laid aside.

Take your face off mine .
You are better off on the outside.

Winters come, winters go,
And the days, they gather slow .

A little warmth would be so nice;
But the hearth is smashed and the fire has died.

"tear-"

"Creeping crawling"
"... horde
I..."

The last two stanzas are very nice. I love how the words are put together, each line. ey hurt; each word.

I cannot criticize, but I can definitely compliment. Very very nice :D

Now, if you can only be a good girl and put a title, eh?

Sitting in front of a big window with a fresh cuppa warm sunlight... your poem is making me feel cold! Not a nice feeling to have. Hope you feel better.

SANITY STARVED-good girl??is that condescension i detect? and no, i aint putting no title. it takes too much effort.writing WITH effort, i do at my job. here i just get to write what i want how i want EFFORTLESSLY.if the title came without me having to make a conscious effort to think of one, i would title it....

and ur 2nd comment....am totally lost.something tells me it could be sarcasm but i am very dense when it comes to innuendos and insinuations!!:p SO!!!
