My Wings Grow

My Wings Grow

A Poem by butterfly

many people complain
about their marriage
but nobody complains
about their affair.

In the end the lesson is learned
Funny though I dont feel this burn
I loved you voluntarily
not to keep the peace
I just didnt know how to cease
My heart couldnt understand
This was just based on a lease
He text me today
There is no harm now
We have moved on to just being friends
This we started with and in this ship we end
Yet I feel the love still
I guess for you i always will
I close my eyes and dream of our last kiss
Myself tangled in a borrowed bliss
As he lay on top
Giving me his love full heart
I know now i am rooted there like a redwood tree
i am there in his mind so deep
Maybe he thinks of me while lying next to she
I admit its a sad thing really
Life isn't fair
Why did we meet
Why does she entrap you
I guess since she had you first
She doesnt have to share
I am no longer jealous of her there
For I have a piece of you
A reverie mixed with fantasy
Yet a part of my autobiography
I dont want to keep what isn't mine
I dont need to trap you and lie
Make you give me diamonds
Mined by a child
I would rather be free and wild
Untamed not afraid to kiss the flame
I close my eyes
I see us again and again
Making love in the twilight
Under the stars
when no one could see
He takes her in his arms
Asking her please kiss me
As the wind blows
And the buffalo freeze in the snow
We find a secret fire to keep us warm
This small sign of hope
I will always know
no matter where I go
My wings grow
