Butterfly Wings
A beautiful butterfly I did chase...Net a flowing in the field...
Not to harm or catch in haste...
The net was only armor to wield.
For secrets known and love once touched...
To capture was never an idea or thought...
But to chase to hold a passion was too much...
To ignore the pain that love's past brought.
But how was I supposed to know...
Right when I caught up to it...
Butterfly wings would wrap round to show...
That I should stay round for just a bit.
Love is not for the weak of heart...
Too many risks, to wonder why...
Love is only for the start...
Of the strong who will not fly.
So I watch you flutter there...
Wings of beauty from the heart...
The more I watch the more I care...
That net never touches you from the start.
For if I must capture, I hold you not...
Except in a cage which you cannot dwell...
But if I understand what I have got...
I hold your love forever, without pause or fail.
