ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I love reading my old stuff. It shows me how bad I really was. So I culled a little, getting rid of the truly terrible stuff, and leaving some of the semi-terrible stuff for laughs.

I've been published in a poetry book (The Nightingale). Oher then that I have no real 'accomplishment' when it comes to writing. I attempt to be honest in my work, drawing very rarely from my experience (I have a drama free and relatively boring life) and instead drawing on imagination and my family and friends.

I write better when I'm in a depressed mood. So that's why at the moment I rarely write. that and it doesn't matter if I write or not.

The Web
Chloe L Batey

We're tangled in this thing called life,
Falling like sand through an hourglass,
Falling deeper and deeper into the abyss
Of love and death and isolation,
And even in this solitude
We cannot be alone
For all your friends qualify to become
Tangled

It's a web that we keep weaving
Walking further and further into our shame
Memories and freedom meet with sleep and shadows
Cageing us, making us part of the web

Turning back is not an option
Moving forward is what we were trained to do
And we are creatures of a simple habit
To do and obey what we were born to do
And we are to build the confines of our tombs
As we weaken with excuses
Of a time forlorn
With hopes and dreams and security
Gone

It's a web that's always weaving
We walk further and further into our fears
Life and hope meet with death and resurrection
Of a new world, making us part of the web

As we become one with this tangled mess
A knowledge of obscurity secures our mind
Creating an opportunity to embrace
Whole heartedly, Whole minded
If only to cause creation
Of a lonely time
Of prosperity and peace gone long
Ago
