I am surrounded by a vast world who claims to love me, 

But the only love that matters is yours. 

I am drawn to you like a moth to a lantern,

The closer I get, 

The heat intensifies. 

I approach the source of the blinding light,

I lose all my senses. 


Overcome by a heat in my chest that engulfs my limbs and torso, 

I stand immobilized by your great light, 

Blinded by your intensifying aura. 


The world points to you to my faults, 

My worst qualities dug up with a brush and shovel. 

But you might see through them. 


That keeps my spirit alive. 


The slim chance that my imperfections are overlooked. 

What are the odds?


A girl with no flaws following a low life

into a dim cave to nowhere,

On the hunt for that extravagant light.


I long for one night, 

Where my dreams become reality, 

Where the world would melt. 

Leaving it all on the line.

 

That is all I can hope for, 

To uncover the brightest truths of the universe, 

All for me, 

In the kiss of a single girl.
