A Butterfly's Blessing

I break out of my shell, my comfort zone, my cocoon

I spread my wings and let them dry. 

The sun rays make my reds, and golds look like fire

As my fiery wings dry, I jump off my branch and plumb it to my death. 

Or so you think.

I use my brand new muscles to flap my thin wings. 

The wind helps pull me up,so I can see everything. 

I see lakes of red, purple, and orange flowers 

I sit down on a flower 

licking the gold nectar to fill my empty stomach

Out of no where

Everything went black

I jump around and start to scream

But I was trapped

I then hear a laugh and a voice

The voice was tender and sweet.

It soon calmed me down with it's hushing

The light soon starts to break in my cage

I'm blinded for awhile 

Then a face appears.

It was a human boy.

His hair was covering his sparkling brown eyes.

His hair was black like the night

His smile was like the sun blinding me more.

He looked at me with love and curiosity

I look back with curiosity 

I flew up to his face to give him a gift

A butterfly kiss my kind call it

A blessing the humans call it and

A curse other say

But I never knew what it effects were

My kind never wanted us to associate with the humans

As, I flew away 

I see him watching me  with a smile on his face. 

Did he know what I was? 

A fairy of no common race

As I flew to my home

My sight was blurry and fading in and out

I started to fall

Down to the cold hard ground to my death. 

---------------------

I woke up with a start

It was all just a dream. 

What did it mean?

To clear my head I decided to take a walk to the cafe

I put on my red jacket and headed to the cafe

With my head down, I accidentally knocked into someone 

Making the person drop his books

"Oh my gosh I'm so sorry!!!" I say as I pick up the person's books 

As I handed the person it's book 

My eyes were locked with the guy's brown eyes.

They were so familiar.

As we both stood up, I saw that the guy was the same guy from my dream.

"Hello! My name is Derek. Do I know you?" He asked.

"I'm not sure. My name is Yara." 

Derek smiled, "Were you heading to the cafe?"

"Yes," I blushed because of his beautiful smile. 

"May I join you, Little Butterfly."

"Sure." I continued to smile.

---------------

On the ground

By a bush 

I lay on the cold ground

I was happy that I gave the boy a blessing 

even though it costed my life.

Those dumb humans were wrong

butterfly kisses weren't a curse

They were a blessing of true love

With her last, dying breath 

you could hear her say

"Human are stupid to not believe in true love."

Soon the butterfly begins to fade away into the ground

As she disappears, a yellow flower begins to grow. 

It is a memory of her bravery and her butterfly kiss.

When you a see a random flower just remember it could be a brave butterfly who gave it's life to kiss a human. 

And maybe just maybe that human could be you! 

Author's Note

Hope you like it! Of course the purple is the fairy/butterfly's view and the blue is the girl's view. If you didn't know Yara in Arabic means little butterfly. Hopefully that makes more sense! :)
