Butterfly Garden
Pictures of us
Revealed that we were once in love
Partaking in butterfly kisses
Strolls in the park
And intimate moments that I thought
Would have never came to an end
She was more than just my lover
As we tried to mend happiness
That shouldn't have been tampered with
However she pretended instances of felicity
Just to keep me pleased
'Till one day, she reached a point
Where she could no longer stand the confusion
Caused by illusions she provoked her mind to believe
So quietly,
She set me free
I felt like a rose garden
Trembled by a snow storm
As I stood there in solitude
And let my petals fall vigorously to the ground
She was no where to be found
And with a soundless voice
I weep'd myself asleep
Confusion caused by illusions provoked my mind to believe
That this was just a never ending dream
And, shall I wake again
My petals will rise and create that beautiful garden
That was shuddered in the mist of my tears
Butterflies peacefully swarming
Lovable kisses that fed the soil for growth
To regain hope for a love that was lost
In this unimagined force
However, as my eyes open
Loneliness was still laying at my bedside
And reality was spoken for
As those unforgettable scriptures
"I'm sorry, I can't do this anymore"
Continued to linger in my ears
