Just Breathe

Lay in bed, not a sound to hear, except your beating heart, don't think, don't do anything except be in the moment, you are surrounded by beauty, monarch butterflies kiss your cheek.

Be in this moment, only you and mother nature, be in her cathedral of pure bleak, she has called you here, because you are so dear, the warm Texas breeze blows your hair, close your eyes, she has a surprise.

Monarch butterflies are laying themselves on your soul, they are saying "we love you" as only they can, are you finally at peace? A loved one has come to say HI, time has come to say goodbye, but no tears you shed, instead you sit up and smile, you ate greeted with a beautiful sight. Millions of monarch butterflies fly in unison, to carry your burdens, your worries, away to mexico..

You are made whole now, Go forth and spread your love, walk in peace, and don't forget to look above...

Hi, Jennifer. I thought your ballad was lovely. A beautiful message, as light and wispy as those butterflies.......
