Death of a moth
Death of a moth
You came from the heavens
Through my open door last night,
Carefree, to show me how to smile.
You came from hell
Through cat-paws, as soft as your wings
Defying all challenges, to show me resilience.
You came with life,
To dance around and around our lightbulb
Transfixed with an inevitability, to show me death.
You came
You smiled
You died.
Everything in-between was life.
Your life brought light, to me;
I live to fly another day,
My wings singed by sadness.
