Butterflies In My Heart

You have only been gone for a day or two But I swear my love I am pining for you I miss you so when we are apart There is an aching deep in my heart. My love it will not forever always be like this I long to be in your arms and savour our sweet kiss In my dreams I’m lying with you in our four poster bed Visions of us together I can’t get out of my head The moment I saw you I felt my heart lift The dear lord in heaven gave us a wondrous gift You know it is a love that he will not deny When the butterfly flutters by. Never dreamed I'd meet a guy like you Been waiting all my life and now it is true The ocean wide keeps us apart But my love you are always in my heart Across the great ocean I now start to row The butterfly will show me the way I know With each beat of my heart he flutters those wings And I hear a choir of heavenly angels sing. The butterflies flutter deep inside my heart No longer can the ocean keep us apart It carries your boat straight into the bay Together forever in your arms I will stay I was a dull brown chrysalis when we first met You made me feel special so this phase I forget Became a pupa and soon I was flying so high Finally emerging as a beautiful magenta butterfly We often look in the mirror but we fail to see The sensuous aura and hidden beauty You are free of that chrysalis and soaring high Forever you are that butterfly fluttering by May 21st 2014 submitted to Kelly Deschler's The Butterfly Flutters By Contest
