You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I’m alone
And so I tell myself that I’ll be strong
And dreaming when they’re gone.
lyrics from Lights by Ellie Goulding

I trust my inner light to lead me out of the darkness…

That’s all I ask of you…

Once I almost had you
And now I want you again
Sinful bodies, wings of a butterfly.
from Hrisna Tela, Kindla Motyli by Aneta Langerova

I prefer moths to butterflies in the way they are drawn to a flame.

Thanks to Svatava Pearce for the translation.

And who do you think you are
Running ’round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
