An apology
I apologise for the differences between us
For the controversy that caused our constant quarrels
I really do want to celebrate our differences- believe me, I do
But it is difficult if those same differences push me away you
I'm sorry that I do not know how to separate my mouth from my mind
So I apologise in advance if my words make you feel undermined

We grow older by the second
Every breath wasted by another insignificant fight
I do not know why we can't accept
Our differences, though try as we might

I apologise for me not wanting to fit in all the time
Or for trying to defy your definitions of me
Or for time and time again changing the version of me that you get to see




I apologize  if I was never completely grateful of your attention
I regret that to this day
But I hope you can forgive me
That's all I have to say

Butterflies
The slight twinge in your chest when they utter your name
The subtle way they shine bringing everyone to shame
You’re glances short, sweet and persistent
Trying to be subtle trying to resist and
Failing miserably ever so happily
Being drawn to them ever so hopelessly

All the color in the world seems to drain
As soon as they walk away
They are your light, your beacon
Make your knees feel weak and
When they look you in the eyes
Butterflies.
