MOONLIGHT MOTH

moth of the mystic moonlight
daring daughter of desire

your delicate wings, translucent
your bold heart is transparent
for you wear it on your sleeve

allow the heartache to leave

why do you beat yourself bloody
against locked doors with no key?
you were made for better things

you were made for worshiping

lunar lady swathed in love
turn your enchanting eyes
toward starry lapis skies

where lofted love lies

we will circle the seven seas
searching lips, holding hands
pen poetry in forbidden hidden lands

midnight moth you are a flame
lighting my fire of desire from afar

song somewhere in the night

Don,

This is absolutely beautiful - but the lines,

"Why do you beat yourself bloody
against locked doors with no key?
you were made for better things...."

Make me think. Sometimes we know no better. It takes a real man who knows how to love to take us out of the situation we're in and break the cycle - well done.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
