But-She's-So-Phly
I breathe in only what she breathes without
I see only for an instant when she allows
blinks, for her sight is blinding, no doubt
and all is devoid of light until she glows
under the warmth of love’s breath
streaming live emotions we assimilate
each other’s hearts plummeting to depths
of love’s peak where only our hearts do consummate
she's imprisoned me with her beauty
beauty stolen from the bouquet of flowers
that I bequeathed to that cocooned little girly
who's butterly's now imprinted in my stomach forever
I feel like I’m having a prayer, yes
every time I call out her heavenly name
‘cause it brings me down to my knees
eternally grateful for every moment of her time
