Moth

Moth

A Poem by TheUnrulyWriter

He’s stuck in the limelight

He doesn’t know its strength

They told him it would lead him

To a place where he could sleep


He’s stuck in the fire

He doesn’t know its heat

They told him it would take him

To a place where he could freeze


Now he’s lost in the darkness

When he thought that he would see

They told him he would get here

But he thought it would be free
