A Butterfly Should Never Die

A BUTTERFLY SHOULD NEVER DIE I am without anything now that I’m not with you And Lord knows I miss the taste of your smile I miss a perfectly designed dream come true Because you made mounting a mountain seem a mild mile You gave me butterflies and lightning bugs as a gracious gift Because of you the morning wasn’t agony anymore It didn’t matter if I worked in the day or the midnight shift When I returned you would be there with a smile at our door Ain’t nobody’s business how deeply we loved one another But they could tell in our eyes and the way we held hands Ain’t nobody’s business how I loved you, not even my brother While I kissed you under the elm tree in the peaceful place it now stands When you used to approach me it would make my heart race Now that I’m without you I want to know exactly why And it’s difficult when I need to forget your emphatic embrace So now you know from whence comes my woeful wish to die © 2011.….Phreepoetree ~free cee!~
