Misfortuned Butterflies
Maybe if we had
Not let
Worms out
And held the
Can tight
They'd turn
Into butterflies
Late nights
And wrong
Expectations
From young
Blood
Maybe if I had
Kept some
Integreaty
And wasn't so
Willing
There'd be a
Truer resolution
Bright lights
And wrong
Phrases
From young
Blood
Maybe if he had
Been older and
Wiser
And wasn't in a
Rush
There'd be much
More to know
Pointless fights
And wrong
Acquisitions
From young
Blood
Maybe if they had
Let slumber be
Their guide
And not their
Hormones
They'd have
Butterflies
