Quiet down
You entered my quiet realm
and devoured my private peace
alluring desires dancing with
hidden traumatic pains whispering
tomorrow seeking solace a mind
reaches for a bleeding heart to bestow
comfort a healing notion that withers
with shyness unexpressed wants
between empty matter of your
needs calling to my innermost
calm uninvited an yet here you are
tampering with my emotional
bliss one with the sheer notion
of unseen selfishness as I cater
to the lost pathways back to your
unsettling arms awaiting my
weakness to implore a tour
of my thoughts hidden deeply
within as you poke pull taunt and pry
I cover my ears and simply cry
you're not supposed to be here
you're not supposed to be near
my soul vibrate vanishes in your
presence my peace gravely
interrupted an yet I await a cunning
time to emerge from my silkened
caterpillar state to finally open
my colorful wings and softly
soar above you again and again
reaching wonderful new heights
brilliant butterfly landing on a cloud
looking back to say you're just too loud
