Broken Butterfly Wings

Broken Butterfly Wings
Empty playground swings
tear filled, wide-eyed
Infants sigh
a choking stolen 
silence fills my being
as my love walks away
from me
I see everything wrong
with the world
once more

    I love it. Just the title 'Broken butterfly wings' brings about such a strong image that you can instantly feel the tone of the poem. It's beautiful and heart-wrenching at the same time.
