That one instant
When I made you blush with my words
When I got you nervous with my look
That one sweet hug in the street
That one tender peck in my cheek

That should be enough to fill all my longing
Enough to fill many lifetimes with joy
But my greedy heart is never satisfied
Can never have enough of you
And wants to extend those instants for ever
So those memories and delusions of what could have been haunt me
And afflict this hungry heart
Because all it wants is you

You, moon of flesh and bone
You, moon of magic and charm
You, moon of wit and art
You butterfly

You have outshone all the stars in the sky
And brought darkness to my life
You have blurred the golden sun
And dimmed the silver moon
My sky is clouding
And my moon is fading

This obsession tortures me
This passion and burning desired
That overheat me

They temper in your icy words
Sending clouds and fog all around me
Screeching and screaming
Yet it's not enough to melt your ice

You're my ice queen
My crystal butterfly
Now and forever more
So cool and cruel
For letting me near you
But not close enough
To touch you.

I've tried to busy my mind in many many topics
I've tried to endeavor myself in novel things
But my heart keeps on finding you
My dreams are still with you
No matter how far I wander

My glass heart keeps on falling
Spiraling towards you
Towards an inevitable breaking
And I end up composing blue phrases
Hopeless attempts of poetry
All dedicated to your beauty and freshness
And to the faded blue butterflies swimming in my stomach
I know they come from you
And I know they won't let me be

A blue fountain pen that writes in blue
That and blank paper are my tools
To write these words of mine
While I'm thinking of you
You still haut me,
For how long?

I want this to be as cathartic as possible,
I need all of you, or I need you out of my head.
I think I'll just go mad otherwise.
I need my mind, that's all I am,
And you've just invaded all its insides.

I don't blame you, and I never will
As anything that happens to me, falling in love is my own fault
Although your free spirit, your witty mouth and your butterfly wings did play a hand.

I wish I had come before your demise,
Before that faded blue prince of yours had stolen your heart.
We are but fate's marionettes, little creatures tumbling in the dark,
Loving one day at a time, dying one day at a time.
Arriving two minutes too late, just the same as an eternity too late.

I wish I could heal you, I wish I could take away all the pain,
I wish you would give me but one chance,
So I could show you the big heart of a seeker of light.

But this wishful thinking is lethal
My burning desire will stain my soul,
So I've decided, that you are to go.

You'll always be my moon far away,
You'll always be the one star astray.
You'll always be my my muse in the sky,
Those things and all I can't reach with my hand.

I'm awake again, looking in my solitude at the midnight sky once more.
There are no lights coming from above, but a canopy of thick grey clouds that keep the starlight away.

And again, you've awaken me
Though you never meant it
Though you'll never know.

Was I dreaming?
Or was I thinking?
Or just remembering?
It matters not, you were there again, inside my head.

It seems I think and dream so much of you that I have unwittingly carved your delicate face in the inside of my eyelids.

Well, that's bad news for me,
I thought I'd get my mind back,
That somehow I'd disenchant myself.

Now it seems that's not to happen,
Now it seems you've bewitched me for ever more.
Though you never meant it
Though you'll never know.
You haunt my nights
