So simple and so sweet
My bouncy box of music
Clinking and clanking
Gently through my ear drums
Pressure pressure pressure
Sweetly appealing for release
No monsters here.
I hold nothing to fear.
A lull in my resolve
That simple handle,
Turning.
Butterfly Silence.
Excitement and fear bundle as one
This monster untamed,
Lurching and wailing
My fears, My nightmares.
Exposed.
With cold dead hands
I tease the creature back.
Whispering plans,
Hopes and dreams
Hushed away once more.
Butterfly silence.
My momentary relief.

Gently through my ear drums
Pressure pressure pressure
Sweetly appealing for release
No monsters here.
I hold nothing to fear.
A lull in my resolve
That simple handle,
Turning.
Butterfly Silence.
Excitement and fear bundle as one
This monster untamed,
Lurching and wailing
My fears, My nightmares.
Exposed.
With cold dead hands
I tease the creature back.
Whispering plans,
Hopes and dreams
Hushed away once more.
Butterfly silence.
My momentary relief.
