Just love 
When our loved ones 
That have passed away 
Come to visit us 
In our most important days  
In a form of butterfly.

after looking in the mirror
loved ones

people go to see them.
Same for winter

For these two there is Cold
guiding to warmth.

Loved Ones

Our loved ones keep us sane,
Knowing that they’re safe,
Let’s us remain happy and calm.
Without their safety,
We are in just as much danger.
