I am friends with the spiders in the corners of my room.
I am not afraid of them,
I never was.
I have always liked them.
They are nice company,
staying out of my zone whilst still being there.
Just sitting in their nets,
with no expectations or demands on what I should be and do.
They are quiet observers of the world,
yet wildly hated for simply being.
I feel sad for them,
yet I find comfort in the knowledge that
they are like me.
