Singed wings......an acoustic ballad

[Mikepoet]

Just as a moth is drawn,
unto the flickering light of a candle.
Sometimes someone gets burned by love,
which leaves emotions stranded.
Stranded as this moth,
with wings singed by flame.
When a heart gets,
gets burned by love,
it drops to the floor the same.
Some will rise to love again,
their burning desire unquenched.
A timeless need,
of anothers touch,
felt deep withn.
Each time that they fall,
they seem to try to fast.
A burning hunger, a love that will last.
