Butterfly

Violette Nimueh Lycan Mar 2013

Am I like a butterfly?
As fragile as a sigh.

Am I like a butterfly?
Careful and shy.

Am I like a butterfly?
Lovely and divine.

When you catch me do I try to fly?
If you mar my wings do I slowly die?

He came tonight.
The monster.
His shadow fell over me.
And I knew;
It's over, tonight will be the night.

But, no, he came
And left me shivering,
Crying in the night.
And I knew
It was just dreaming.

I woke up before
The sun;
Before anyone else.
And I know
Insomnia is the worse.

I got up.
I made the coffee.
Sleep still invaded my brain.
And I knew;
I can't live like this.

Constant fear.
Constant worry.
When will they take over my body.
And I knew;
I will live with them forever.
And I realize;
I am sorry for the person to put up with me.

I wear a fake smile so you will not see,
all of the torture inside of me.
Will you notice and turn away?
Will my heart, forever, fray?
I don’t want the hurt, in me, to last.
But I know, for sure, it will not pass.

You, who cuts me like a knife;
should be the one to end my life.
Are you too scared to let me go?
Or are you just in some selfish woe?
You know what? I don’t care!
I shall look for this elsewhere!

— The End —
