Forgive Me, Dear Flame
Would you have said those things,
Done those things,
Had she been there?
No.
You wouldn't have.
I can feel it.
It would have been like it was before-
You'd fawn over her,
Forgetting about me,
Completely.
So if I disappear,
If I fade away,
If I skip out on seeing you,
Forgive me,
My flame,
But this moth's beginning to see things clearly-
Or at least until I hear your voice,
Or see your smiling face,
Then back into the fire...
