Moth to the Flame
Moth to the flame!
Fool that you be,
Life 's but a game,
Love is the same,
Better go free!
Moth to the fire!
Madness your’ fate ;
Burnt of desire,
If you expire,
Joy comes too late.
Moth to the kiss
Bringing you death!
‘Gladly for this
Agonized bliss,
With my last breath
Will I adore
As ne’er before!’
Foolish Moth saith.
