Black butterflies

Butterflies of black wings,
burried alive in white & red sand,
eternally imprisoned by golden rings
in silent suffering no one can understand.

Beings of no wills or choices,
with hallow wings that can't fly.
They niether have faces nor voices,
only able to hear the wind cry.

They see the world through a black mask,
where red roses simply never exist,
going through life as a questionable task,
like a future shadowed by dust and mist.

Beautiful captured black butterflies:
wait for a day you are set free.
Don't be swiped by hopeless sighs;
keep your wings fluttering & you'll see.

I think this is a wonderfully painted picture. I can see the poem as if it were a short movie clip inside my head. That just goes to show that you are a great writer. (: Fantastic.

Lovely writing, with a rhythm that works as well. I liked how butterflies here are not symbols of light and freedom as usual, but represent the depression of being captive. Great job.

I like black roses... There was no point to that, except that this poem reminds me of a black rose... How...? I have not the slightest idea...maybe because it's beautiful in it's bleakness. Very well done.
