Love of Many Lives

I want to fall in love again and again;

With the anticipation of constancy

Forming butterflies with little wings

Before they fly off, leaving pits.

 

I want to gaze into many different sets of eyes;

That one with crinkles at the corner,

Others maybe blue or green,

And only mine remain.

 

I think I’d like to recycle tragedy and redemption,

To forever be seen for the first time,

To constantly be revealing my secrets

And be the worship of a man.

 

I should like this world to be a place

Where we agree to fall in and then out,

With a mutual parting of ways

Once the butterflies fly away.
