The Butterfly Wallows

Black petals of goodbyes embellished the ground

The pinkness goes away as the sun is setting

light begins to disappear as it is drowned

The tides show no chance of forgetting

When you flew away beyond where I can be

The heat of the cold  appeared  

As darkness washes over the blue sea

Every speck of existence has been cleared

Longing for the light to be spared

But the Fates have cut the thread

The flowing streams show who cared

Now there is a heavy heart of lead

Nostalgia for the past settles in

When reality begins to show

The sun burnt out before all could begin

And now my precious gem doesn’t glow

A symbol of love hides in the trees

Bringing the longing for the drums beat

But what still exists are the memories

Back when the bitter world was sweet

In the two blue seas it is easy to get lost

And the warmth steals all five senses

The music melted all the frost

Never anything ever tenses

Frolicking in the vibrantly colored meadows

All alone surrounded in undying love

Where benign words of eternity echoes

As a gentle touch is all that was thought of

The butterflies dance with the sun shining down

With fading light a  passionate rendezvous takes place

Bringing the wistfulness where  she is to drown

Getting lost in the stars of the alluring face  

Together the symbol of love is embedded in the tree

The symbol of infinity following

Unknowing of what the ending would be

The butterfly wouldn’t be saved from wallowing
