I don't normaly like this style of poetry. But you made a very good visual and made me think. We are all just like that moth we get trapped by the false lights of society, by lights that can blind and kill us. Then Christ comes along and switches them off and saves us so we can be free to pursue His true light that frees and heals instead of trapping and killing. Thank you I am glad that I read it.
