Moths & Flames
Flicker to a flame
A death unnoticed
A heart crushed
A singular soul lost
Among the detritus of marriage, stability, and finances
Does it really mean that much
To stay within a loverless grasp of
Fear
The unknown
A simple beat of the wings
Remains
Holding us back
Leaving love as the carcass of a moth
Who flew all too close
To the heart
A death unnoticed
A heart crushed
A singular soul lost
Among the detritus of marriage, stability, and finances
Does it really mean that much
To stay within a loverless grasp of
Fear
The unknown
A simple beat of the wings
Remains
Holding us back
Leaving love as the carcass of a moth
Who flew all too close
To the heart
