Life of a butterfly

poem by: Derek Vincent
Written on Apr 02, 2015

As the butterfly flew, the rain poured
as the dead wind blew, the rain spit at the butterfly
as the butterfly had fallen, he stopped breathing
as the butterfly had spoken, a silhouette apeard
as the silhouette leaned, the butterfly had lied
as the silhouette cleaned, the butterfly had died
as the silhouette kissed, the butterfly opened his eyes
as the butterfly was blessed, the silhouette had left
love is dead but it's in your head
life is fate but it still brings hate
love is a fallacy but hate is a policy
your torn from thy rind but still omnipresent in my mind
