Love is like a butterfly

Roused when you gaze

Upon the person you admire

Thinking, oh how they remind me of the clouds

Pastel patterns and soft light

And you’ll forget about how the world is dark

Black pools of ink turned pink

There goes the love of my life

Charming and doe eyed as a deer

And by love I mean

Not just romantically

Your best friend,

Your family

Love is like air

We need it to live

A...

I didn’t do a structured rhyme scheme but yk here it is

The one reason you have

The heart of your life

Is slowly poisoning you

And you can’t see

It has fogged over your eyes

Clouded your vision so that you don’t understand wrong from right

Yet you cling to it blinded by its “glory”

Perception blurred you take wrong path after path

Dizzy with rage you sicken

But you think it’s the cure

And you’ll ...

I watched it fly away

Cloudy and bright

And there it goes

Did I want it to leave?

No

Did I want it to stay…

I wish it could hang around

But then if it did

I wouldn’t be able to make myself watch it wither

So I’ll be glad to let it go

And see who will catch it next

At least I can remember it pure and alive

Bye bye...
