a moth under the skin

he tells me he's ok
that he's fine, he's happy
but i know inside he's aching
please don't try lying to me

i can feel the darkness
and the sorrowful void within
fluttering for release
like a moth under your skin

you're so afraid, so scared
to reveal even the slightest weakness
fearing i'll turn you away
in horror of your hurting ugliness

but don't you know me at all?
'as long as it takes till you're happy'
so go ahead and shed those tears
cause to me, they're an abnormal beauty

a friend of mine, cyrus, asked me to write a poem with the sentence 'a moth under the skin. abnormal beauty'. lucky i was feelin the emo at that time ^^
