Butterflies

Alan R

The quest for that higher self

Can't be the quest for a higher love

For time and again I've had love

Reveal itself to me as something it's not

 

Looking for transcendence in another heart

Hoping for a resonance that can purge 

My being off of all it's search

To stay alive from, the battles unknown

 

Try and define the quest if you may

Come back an empty basket of wonder

Is wonder, all that love's about?

Did you see the butterflies as love again?
