Like Butterflies in Snowstorms
Thanks for reading me wrong
and for deleting me ..
You have completely undone
and released all
the good that was ever in me ..
So surely, it’s high time
for each of us to move forward ..
Nothing at all, really
matters now does it, in the end
it all comes down to
pretence like an image projected
onto some opaque
mirror or screen that does not
bleed, but it feels
nonetheless .. and today, we are
lost and in one hell of
a mess, both shattered and torn
at the seams to the core ..
Blown like some rare and fragile
butterfly into a blinding
colourless grave held by a snowstorm ..

A fine write N.
A fine response O.
The complexity and different layers of your poems astounds me, They mirror the complexity of human relations and because of this require several readings just as do human relations themselves. As each layer is peeled away another is seen beneath. This poem is no less and you attract the reader's attention with the title that reveals what lies beneath the skin. Another wonderful poem
I really can not thank you enough sorenbarrett .. but believe me, I thank you very much indeed .. Neville 😎👍
A very poetic way of someone venting their anger and pain, enjoyed reading this ( not because of the suffering ), but the clever wat it is written,
You are too kind .. but believe me my friend .. I am most grateful to you for it .. Neville 😎👍
You are very welcome
The blizzard said it all… or did the deed! (Shivers) ❄️ 🦋 💀
It always pays to carry a spare light bulb and a space blanket in the glove compartment .. just in case .. cheers arqios .. Neville 😎🐧👍
That is actually good advice!
"Blown like some rare and fragile
butterfly into a blinding
colourless grave held by a snowstorm .." wow! Almost visceral! Loved it

You have such a poetic way of writting your words. Sounds as though you have had your heart broken and I am sorry for that. However, it does bring out some beautiful poetry we get to read,
I shall feign a sense of wisdom not erst wont to be in view and refrain from begging the finer details pertaining to this particular stanza, though half fainting with curiosity. Why, why, why on earth my brother's book of [--] Jokes You Can't Resist was dredged up by your choice imagery, I can't guess, the blank white page portraying ghosts in a snowstorm roasting marshmallows too vividly before me oddly. Okay, enough of such rambling. Beautifully rendered with excellently evocative imagery and a heartbreaking poignancy. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for checking in and checking out my little scribble Missy .. Neville 🧑🎄👍
When you get serious you hit like a sledgehammer... wow
thank you & a happy new year to you and your crew .. Neville
