Too good to be true,
Butterfly blue,
Are you?

I watched you fly through,
From inside my own cocoon,
Not yet ready to bloom,
But I hope to see you soon.

Butterfly blue,
I’ve been dreaming of you,
A mystery to pursue,
Hardly met, yet I already knew.

She quickly saw through,
My thick, anxious cocoon,
Patiently waiting & encouraging my bloom,
Smiling at tomorrow, knowing I’ll see her soon.

I still see through
underneath all the new
you're the same old you
that loves and misses me too
even if you can't look me in the eyes and tell me that it's true
and even when you refuse

I still see through
it wasn't your choice to choose
and I know you do
perhaps you and I were meant to lose
or maybe we just withdrew

I still see through
laying next to her as you slumber and snooze
dreaming of how I held you under a starry sky bloom
for with me you grew up and into who?
the most dangerous heart I will ever belong to
all of which I still see through

Hazel green you caught me by surprise,
& I fell in love with the iridescence in your eyes.

Hazel green you must know,
the hardest decision was letting you go.

Hazel green I will always treasure,
the magic between the heartbreak was truly my pleasure.

Big sigh & one last cry,
Hazel green, this is goodbye.

been feeling blue
since before i met you
but girl i should let you know
before you go
it was a pleasure
i cannot measure
to bestow
your pools of indigo

Twas written in the stars,
how your glide in the park,
broke my foolish heart.

Warm body held tight,
uninterrupted affection,
in someone else's arms tonight,
looking at her I see my own reflection.

I sleep alone and dream all day,
of all the things I'll never say.

While my heart is aching, my mind is clear,
this life is mine and I'm the one to steer.

Though my love runs deep,
I shall not dwell,
gazing onward I must leap,
I will not rebel,
this growing curve is steep,
but time will surely tell.

foggy window
shedding pages of November
the deeper down I burrow
you are all I can remember

Dear sweet darling,
if only you knew.

My quandary of our parting,
a testament of my love for you.

Oh, Juliet,
You're out and you're free.

Far greater than adequate,
so far, far from me.

The loss of you,
I cannot bare it.

No longer two,
I cannot share it.

We traveled many tales,
then wrote our own to follow.

Our love prevails,
yet impossible still to swallow.

With you I dreamt to wed,
draped in white, my beloved bride.

Awake, lonely in bed,
I cry and mourn for my delicate dream has died.

For you are my heart's reserve,
praying your years to come bring jubilation.

Of which you deserve,
sincerely yours in my everlasting adoration.

Sincerely, Romeo to Juliet
