I am a moth
You are a flame,

Drawn to you
Captivated by everything you do,

Despite the risks of getting burned
I still keep on closing in,

To feel the warmth
of your embrace.

He looks at her
as she walks away
while on his knees
trying to pick up his heart's
broken pieces.

Going around circles
tired of all this endless arguments
wondering..
when will this going to end?

Some nights
the little girl would cry
covering her ears
cowering in fear
wishing that her nightmares would disappear.

Every time you were together
Whenever your hands touch hers
I am filled with this emotion
Was it jealousy?
Because it wasn't me who you are with
Or was it envy?
Because you have someone to lean on other than me.

He was once again
abandoned
by the people who only gave him pain
leaving scars that'll forever remain.

As the mermaid turned to bubbles,
For feelings she couldn't contain,
I too shall turn to ashes,
Consumed by overwhelming pain.

How draining it is
for this place to be my haven,
yet also the very place
I long to escape.
