Butterflies

Butterflies dance beneath my toes, My heart beats faster as I take you close, I feel so numb and weak, That I cannot speak, Lost in a maze, For days in your embrace, I touch your thighs, I close my eyes, Our souls do the all the moving, Everlasting is the fuel that our love is consuming, The night grew late, So I'll have to wait, Because surely I must leave, And my lust for your love will turn to grief, Until in your eyes I see, The butterflies that began to rise that you used to set me free.

Sweet poem, I think I must leave your wall now because my lust for your poems will turn to grief if you stop to write. Welcome to poetry soup brother

Thank you for the greeting. I'm not a poet or nothing. I just like to send them to my girlfriend. Am just looking for unbiased opinions and such.
