Butterfly Kisses

Do you feel the love inside of you?
I feel the love inside me too
Millions of butterflies all over my skin
Millions more are fluttering within 
Flying all around, I think I’m getting sick
Why do I feel like the air is suddenly getting thick?
This feels so strange, this is hard to comprehend
We were once strangers then you became my special friend
But now you’re gone too far away
Can’t see your face another day
My hands are shaking, my palms are sweating
I’m suffocating, it’s all frustrating
Butterfly kisses, the gentlest kiss
The most beautiful kiss that I’ll forever miss
You were my source of happiness
Now all I feel is worthlessness
Before you, my life was dark and gloomy
It’s amazing how much you changed me
They say you should never ask God why,
But I never wanted to say goodbye
No wonder they say life isn’t fair
Will you think about me up there?
I promise I’ll think about you too
I don’t want to say farewell to you
Butterfly kisses turned into teardrops on my face
Every time I miss your warm embrace
