I looked at you longingly
Expecting to embrace me
A blank wall stared back at me
Asking me who are you?
With tears in my eyes
I murmur 'who am I to you? '
With no regrets you answer,
'I am a butterfly free to
suck nectar from
Any flower.
My day should be filled
With happiness and adventure
And new sights each day.
I love humanity but not you
We can share home
And nothing more'
I stared at him in painful disbelief
My eyes flooding with tears
Was I some Flower
In his life
To be used and thrown away?
