iridescent thoughts

by @ultravioletsx

butterflies caged by ribs, a life begging to be lived red heart beats in time with the thoughts of my mind but thoughts can fit through cracks like the butterflies that are trapped from mind to lips that part but not passing through my heart lips set the butterflies free along with the feelings inside of me yet I still feel lost when I collide with my thoughts my head is desensitized perhaps my thoughts are the butterflies their wings coated with beauty but they can still come out rudely although my thoughts are broke when the words reach my throat i long to fly too like the butterflies that broke through i won't hold my tongue anymore butterflies free to explore these thoughts begging to exist a life begging to be lived
