The Irish Black Widow

The fate of any 
man
bewitched by love
with 
one particular
Irish girl
is one that
usually ends 
their journey
in this realm 
of world
Black Widow
some call her 
death itself
in all forms 
of wealth 
they try to 
bargain for her 
love
She was wild 
unsettled 
never felt to blame
for there was love, 
there was sadness, 
there was a broken heart all the same.

I lost two out of the three men I had ever loved in my life, within one week of each other in 2017. Cory Freeman
Liviu Cuiperciuc

I kept thinking I was the black widow
and that any man that falls in love 
will need to be warned

I know that is not logical - it is a way in which the insanity of it all could come to the surface for me
