"Butterflies Are Free"

Love's Stage

Butterflies Are Free



Drinking to the promises of tomorrow

toasting the dreams of forever,

hope springs eternal

in the fountain of ever after



yet, being here with you

understanding your fears,

tears of past promises

and tokens of broken dreams,

takes me back to haunts of yesterday



memories clocking in

with the second hand of time

ticking, somehow not moving,

when great expectations

flew high,

but ran on empty.



"Enter At Your Own Risk"

the corridors of love's heart

the chamber of lost soul's

"Warning"

seek shelter in the freedom of walls



No regrets

well maybe, just a few

yet, looking at you

imparts backyard memories

a time when butterflies,

were truly free.
