I left

The spider webs

In the corners of the room

Swept

Away the dust

Cleaning up the gloom

I left

The spider webs

To fill the empty corners

Opened

All the windows

To the smell of blooming clovers

I left

The spider webs

In the shadows made of light

Tidied

Up the bedsheets

Cleared the traces of the night

I left

The spider webs

In the corner

I left

The cobwebs

Dangling there

I left

The memories

Stagnant, un-swept

Clogging

The corners

Of my heart

I left

The spider webs

To stay

Because

I couldn't

Sweep them away.
