He told me the butterflies never last
That they are nothing more than pheromones
That they last only for a few months

I beg to differ
There are still butterflies
They wreak havoc inside
Everytime I hear his name
See his face
Feel his touch

It has been months
I still have them
What does that say....

The butterflies left
Not long after "I do"
They haven't left with him
What does that say about you?
My soon to be exact husband and I "discussed" the divorce decree today (he said off color words again, I let him vent. The children were there). We got back on why I left. I reminded him I wasn't happy. He said he knows and believes I'll never be happy again. I told him the butterflies left. He said they were never meant to stay. Only pheromones for a short time....I've always had butterflies with my muse...what does that say???
