Butterfly
Always out of reach little butterfly.
I stretch and reach but never can quite catch.
You are who makes me exclaim, weep, and cry.
If you lay upon a branch, I will snatch.
So, I grasp your ice cold motionless frame.
Poof, as you ascend into paradise,
I can just perceive you, as if a game.
You are so very quiet such as mice.
I know. Don't ́t tell me. It's my fault.
Everyone pretends that you are okay.
They begin to seal you into a vault.
I can not watch you be put to lay.
My emotions overflowing my brain,
As I observe you settle with no pain.
