butterfly.
butterfly, i'm glad you came
born into this world a human with a spirit of an angel
touching so many lives, those strong and others fragile
smiling everyday although pain lurks behind the mouth
her mood seemed like it always skyrocketed north, when it headed down south
mother, daughter, sister, wife, friend, and mentor in her life
taken away from us unexpectedly in the middle of the night
butterfly, now you're gone
leaving this world unannounced without an explanation
we are left feeling angry, sad, confused and frustrated
as i watched you in a never ending slumber
my heart dropped to my feet and my mind began to wander
butterfly, you're back now and free to spread your wings and fly
just as beautiful in the air as you were on land
come butterfly, fly to my hands
just one more interaction together before you depart
you leaving wasn't easy but starting to accept it is a start
fly butterfly, come back to me soon
i miss you always and i look forward to seeing you
