Just another poem about the person who will always have a place in my heart.
                                                    BUTTERFLY


In my heart you are a caterpillar
You will not be able to fly
Until I've learned to let you go

In my dreams you are a prisoner
And I'm the one that rescues you
But in the end there's no ever after
In our world we make decisions we're not proud of
We are hated, confronted and stepped on
But we never have to fall

I'll protect you with an empty flesh
I'll take the pain for you
Don't think that I'm in love
I have fallen
Would you feel the same
Would you runaway
Would you have to ask
Before you say NO

I never had to think
You were always in my mind
I would shower you with gifts
But what good does it do
A piece of chocolate melts
My heart is gold
Flowers rot and eventually die
Yes, we do too

But my love will always live for you
My words will echo in your ears
My eyes will watch over
Where ever you are
Where ever I am
Look at the sky
At the flying butterfly
