"Moth's Embrace"

Darkness falls
and swallows me
no light
that I can see

An endless cold
resides within
more bitter than
an arctic wind

Empty sails
on a windless sea
no hope
of ever sailing free

Imagined chains
bind me here
yet its not the end
I fear

Happiness taunts
my memory
with pleasant thoughts
I almost see

A moth's embrace
is just like me
drawn to false light
illusions that I see

Fluttered wings
leave dusty marks
kisses on my soul
naked I am stark

A deserts stretch
my nubile pain
dry and endless
a vital drain

A lonely creature
pull it in
no one to share
the gravest of all sin

This is indeed a dark beauty...An elegant flow which is never weighed down by heavy rhyme, or forced vocabulary. This is a perfect demonstration of emotion freely expressed. These lines were brilliant...
