I write so much about the butterfly, so Your title draged me at once, and how enchanting it was to read... I know the symbols of the butterfly, but one intelligent friend told me that it's a symbol of Eternity, I was surprised to know because I remembered all my poems about her, and what it means to me, and like Your piece here, it speaks and resembles Eternal Love.

love can bring us together, but can also interfere if the love flies in a different direction.
