fathoms deep in heart and mind
resides a secret you won’t find
he never was a made up lie
he was a precious whispered sigh
who wandered in my garden fair
before i knew it there turned i
when fluttered by Adonis blue
i morphed into a butterfly
a weakened creature i became
a risk it was a passing whim
he stole the strength that i once built
inside my fortress safe within
my admiration can not die
my wings got crushed yet still i fly
on melodies of love once felt
when winter snow one spring did melt

Ooh! Weave a tale of romance so fair I must swoon, yet tendered so daintily and with such passionate endearment I swoon again. Gorgeously rendered with exquisite imagery and delicious poignancy, thank you, thank you so much for sharing. I love it!
