Butterflies are rare

 

 I confess my very first love 

was the one that gave me butterflies

the one, that made me

swing my arms around

in eternal hope

never to let go

 

hands, I wanted to hold

twenty-four-seven

and my smile?

it just wouldn’t let me rest

not even as I slept

in sweet slumberbash

 

alas

 

it simply wasn\'t to be 

and no matter of all the in-betweens  

nothing could have saved our love  

 

i\'m not regretful

actually i’m most grateful

 

 

because love is…

 

profound pain

immense happiness

instability

loyalty

 deceit

and sometimes jealousy  

hell, even death 

 

but I wouldn’t want it any other way

 

because my darling

butterflies are rare.
