Butterfly

You just passed me by.
Gentle wings in radiant colours
you flew right beside me and purposefully away.

Was that a sign from the proverbial Gods?
Or was it just a beautiful moment
I should appreciate
in these troubled times?

I don’t know but I know
that I appreciate
the beauty of it all.

Betrayal

Burned and turned
Into ashes so

Easily blown away by
The indifferent winds

You burned me and
turned my heart
Into ashes
Only to be caught up
And  blown away by the wind

You have hurt me in an indelible way.
Nothing is okay now.
You’ve done your worst.

Congratulations.

You

I love you
Forever and always

I try so hard
To understand.  

Sometimes we are so aligned
and other times so maligned.

You have hurt me
So many times

These last few years
But I forgive
I give you

hell and
Another chance
To come back to me
To come back

To love.

And I’ll keep doing it
until you find your way

Back to me.

I hate you but
I love you
So
Now what?
Stasis.
Confusion.

Oh I don’t know.

You are terrible
But I love you so terribly
Oh heartbreak
this is so so heartbreakingly
Confusing.

I’m right beside you.
Please do not think that I would
Be anywhere else.

My sweet boy and my
Sweet girl how I love you both
Always and all ways.
