To The Butterfly I Didn't Mean To Hurt
You came so soft, like a whisper with wings
But I moved too fast.
I Didn't mean to.
You fell
Because I forgot how delicate
Beauty really is.
Now I carry your stillness
Like an apology in my chest
If you hear me,
I'm sorry.
And thank you
For choosing me,
Even for a moment
I'll carry your softness forward
Even if I couldn't protect yours.
