My black butterfly


Black Butterfly, set the skies on fire Rise up even higher So the ageless winds of time can catch your wings Do you remember that song? It's your favorite, I had it on repeat for months, I still do. You never truly left, at least never to me. After that day the days seemed to be shorter. Weeks felt like days, and days felt like seconds. Two months passed by until i was back from that place. You left but I stayed, With you gone I did not know what to do. I wanted to call you everyday just to tell you how my day went and to laugh with you. I miss you. Those days were hard, I couldn't listen to your favorites for a long time. They reminded me of you and the great times we had. The worst part was that we're supoosed to spend summer together just a month but its still something. We were going to watch netflix and have to pause it a lot, I mean we have the same size blender. Take mid-day naps then go to the movies. We we're going to go to the bead bar and have a great time , I was going to make you a bracket and it was going to be one I know you'd like for sure. And you'd make me one that i would never take off. But none of that happened. You left because the pain was too great and you wanted to be free of it. I push harder for you now. You are my motivation. From the bottom of my heart I wish you to be my black butterfly
