A moth was in love
With a flame so divine
Drawn to flame's glory
Or drawn to it's own fate
Everyday moth would wander in search of it's love
And every night it sat around flame watching it shed tears
Moth knew flame can't be his
And he can't be of flame
But then we are drawn to things
That we can never have
Moth wanted to kiss the fire that meant his end by all means
But love was all but wait for them
And so it happened
One day moth flew into the fire
And fire gulped in red flames of tears
Moth gave up his life for one kiss
Fire cried that night till there was nothing but smoke
Lingering around even though the writhing flame was dead
This was a love story of a moth and a flame
Love is not for faint hearts
But for brave and daring souls
Cause true love is hard to come by
And if it does, be willing to sail through the storm
Even if it means to drown in the wrecking storm..
