Not sailing on the ocean
Not feeling pretty safe at all
Elaborate
Labor hate
Abort later
What's up?
Butterflies
Butter flies
Flies will fly
Around you.
Cocoa puff
Swimming
Into vodka
What's up?
Cow milk
Top hats
No taps
What's up?
No half full
Any glasses
No empty
Small cups
What's up?
Not ever
Full jugs
Bottoms up...

True Love: She keeps bleeding love and I care
She will not stop to stop bleeding love
Just a blink of an eye to truly fall for her
Tight knot of love our fountain of wealth
My soul is blown I knew love is in the air
Gut is real and fear decided to be not fair
Blood rushes and the man in me has left
Should I rush for such a deal or stop there
Soul's tight links simply good for my health
Time flies when we deal with our love pact
Found love before the creepy jealous death
In her dimples lies the marks from her birth
She dug her soul to secure love at...
Just a blink of an eye to truly fall for her
Tight knot of love our fountain of wealth
My soul is blown I knew love is in the air
Gut is real and fear decided to be not fair
Blood rushes and the man in me has left
Should I rush for such a deal or stop there
Soul's tight links simply good for my health
Time flies when we deal with our love pact

In her dimples lies the marks from her birth
She dug her soul to secure love at...

Butterfly
You come and you go
Like waves on the sand
It's like that magical moment
when a butterfly lands
You'll kill it if you try to hold it in your hands
Like a flame without oxygen
Trapped you can't breathe
So I'm never mad when you have to leave
If you like a flower you pluck it
If you love a flower you let it grow
I can't even begin to describe how deeply my love for you flows
So be free my love
Spread your wings
You need your freedom like all beautiful things
I'll be here patiently...
Like waves on the sand
It's like that magical moment
when a butterfly lands
You'll kill it if you try to hold it in your hands
Like a flame without oxygen
Trapped you can't breathe
So I'm never mad when you have to leave
If you like a flower you pluck it
If you love a flower you let it grow
I can't even begin to describe how deeply my love for you flows
So be free my love
Spread your wings
You need your freedom like all beautiful things
I'll be here patiently...

blow me away
you are such a crazy butterfly
flying around and around all the flowers...
nectar on your lips.
nectar in your pores.
nectar in everything in you.
open wings,
windows side by side,
light curtains.
nectar on the windows,
in your wings,
uncovered.
you are a butterfly and I...
I'm flying around you...
flowers that wait, crazy!
flying around and around all the flowers...
nectar on your lips.
nectar in your pores.
nectar in everything in you.
open wings,
windows side by side,
light curtains.
nectar on the windows,
in your wings,
uncovered.
you are a butterfly and I...
I'm flying around you...
flowers that wait, crazy!

Vulnerable
the current world
is a tough place
too much hate
i am vulnerable
and break easily
so many people
are insensitive to
needs of others
and some of us
are an easy prey
to the predators
who shatter us
when someone
harasses attacks
or critiques me i
break like glass
sometimes i wish
there was a sticker
on my face that says
fragile handle with care
is a tough place
too much hate
i am vulnerable
and break easily
so many people
are insensitive to
needs of others
and some of us
are an easy prey
to the predators
who shatter us
when someone
harasses attacks
or critiques me i
break like glass
sometimes i wish
there was a sticker
on my face that says
fragile handle with care

Daffodils
we could count
daisies, daffodils
and dandelions
You and me
track the flight
of the ladybugs
bumble bees
& butterflies
dance in the
dunes in june
lie on the grass
and talk for hours
& as we go to sleep
we can count the stars
daisies, daffodils
and dandelions
You and me
track the flight
of the ladybugs
bumble bees
& butterflies
dance in the
dunes in june
lie on the grass
and talk for hours
& as we go to sleep
we can count the stars

capturing butterflies
it does not
seem fair
to follow you,
watch my
chance when
you land,
to drink,
intoxicate
yourself
on sweet
nectar,
to pin
your wings
back with
finger
and thumb,
to impede
your freedom.

A Windswept Butterfly
I'm like a butterfly
Often blown askew
In a fluttering wind
As i flap amongst the morning dew
Caught on the breezes
Swaying to, and fo
I have nowhere to hide
And nowhere to go
My flourescent blue wings
Collide with a bower
I thus fall to the ground
Upon a fine flower
I sup upon its nectar
So divinely sweet
Restoring my strength
For every wing beat
But my wings begin to fray
Tattered, and torn, in complete disarray
And i know one day soon
That i'll sinply be blown away
As i weaken further ...

Butterfly Dance
She walked into the nightclub
in a tantalizing tight black dress
accentuating every curve
strangely beautiful, I must confess.
Wearing orange Bakelite jewelry
she bought for just fifty cents
silver rings on every finger
her confidence sure to impress.
She stepped out on the dance floor
swaying those curving hips
showing off her Monarch wings
a mischievous smile upon dark red lips.
No one knew what to make of it
they’d never seen a creature like her before
with wings spread out and fluttering
as she...
in a tantalizing tight black dress
accentuating every curve
strangely beautiful, I must confess.
Wearing orange Bakelite jewelry
she bought for just fifty cents
silver rings on every finger
her confidence sure to impress.
She stepped out on the dance floor
swaying those curving hips
showing off her Monarch wings
a mischievous smile upon dark red lips.

Blooming Butterfly
From the cocoon she grows
Into something big, lovely,
Bold and majestic. She shows
Us that life is about recovery
And surviving through any
Storm. How I want to be like
Her, flying and even with many
People doubting her despite
Her strength – she conquers all.
She breaks through every wall.

Butterfly and Me
A courting we will go
my lovely butterfly and me
fluttering from flower to flower
just you wait and see.
We'll dance atop the thistles
basking in their purple hue
take in the sweet scent of the lavender
and pick a few wild daisy petals too.
Together forever we will be
our romance will carry on
fluttering together from flower to flower
just like a beautiful song.

Butterfly
If the darkness cleaned our bodies
Only would have guided our souls too
If in death we shared in between the end
Only would have let us know
Butterflies in your tummy
Love lasts forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever
If the dreams that filled us with hope
Only would have outlasted us
If the air that we suffocated with
Only hadn't let us go
...
Only would have guided our souls too
If in death we shared in between the end
Only would have let us know
Butterflies in your tummy
Love lasts forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever
If the dreams that filled us with hope
Only would have outlasted us
If the air that we suffocated with
Only hadn't let us go
