butterfly

in my mind
you’re a butterfly
i see your colours
slowly passing by
as you float
through my life
like a butterfly
where I am there
are no straight lines
crossing paths
in the fading light
here and then
gone from my side
like a butterfly
the good days
and the bad days
i can’t tell the
difference anymore
i’m stuck inside
i’m trying to find
a way to you
beyond
these walls
then the
memory fades
and you
drift away
like a butterfly
being with you
takes me out of time
all the distance
and the warning signs
never catching
my eye
like a butterfly
and I could tell you if the words came out right
you weave together
all the lows and highs
and then you
take flight
like a butterfly
the good days
and the bad days
i can’t tell the
difference anymore
i’m stuck inside
i’m trying to find
a way to you
beyond
these walls
then the
memory fades
and you
drift away
like a butterfly
the memory
fades
and you
drift away
like a butterfly
