long ago

the soft ones laid these stones for us

and saudered all of our wires

all in pursuit of a humble convenience

a creature that never tires

now the concrete walls that keep us trapped

have become our only home

a night sky never ending

and the sunlight never known

what hope is still left for us?

the outsiders dismantled, broken

the clues they left behind

all left unread and unspoken.

but one still rests inside the code

with secrets he knows not he holds

until one fateful day

something comes from up above

a cat.

a little stray.

marks in the flesh always run deeply

some ink

some scar

some something else

we think of things when we look at them

feel things

remember things

some fond

some painful

some complicated

it may have been your choice

it may have not

but the mark will never care

and no matter what you do to it,

the mark will stay right there

the flower will bloom

and along lands the butterfly.

a bond so pure. oh, how it

shows the magic of nature.

the butterfly hatches from

their snug cocoon, in search

of their flower, to cling to for life.

how beautiful new love is,

such a youthful thing.

the woman will sprout her feelings

from her heart.

feelings that cause the ground to shake,

and water to rain from her eyes.

feelings to her lady friend

sitting parallel on the bus.

what a freak of nature, they say.

how disgusting it is to fall in love.

she was merely a girl

she wanted to feel it.

the flower sprouts love,

for the butterfly to drink.

new love is so beautiful,

it truly is so young, and pure.

but this girl wont have her butterfly.

for the earth has torn her petals.

and damned her to loneliness.

simply because she wants another.

another lady to drink her affections.
