The Moth And The Flame

has a deeper meaning but whatever ^^ read and enjoy :)

Like a grey moth

Attracted to a flame

I want to get closer

To what I cannot tame

Unlike all the others

I want to make it explode

To burst into a thousand lights

Like a firework show

And though my little wings

May be torn by its lashing tongue

I want to see its brilliant flash

Before I come undone

This burning beacon

Is something the rain can’t slay

A crashing tsunami

Won’t stand in its way

So I, the little moth

Am content with what I see

A beautiful radiance

That remains a mystery
