BUTTERFLIES CRIES..
A jagged horizen
Drawn by attention
Shadowed peaks
Upon halcyon mountains
Seeking solitude
The sinking sun slides
Between the crevace
Of a charred hillside
Smouldering boulders
Charcoal trees
Simmer into the night
Extinguished by the cool breeze
Now I watch and wait
As I anticipate
Final rays to vanish
Amid a bronzed-sky haze
Smoky wings flutter
Burnt by the blaze
Butterflies die
Terminating their day
Their silent screams
Are still seen in my dreams
Everytime....I close my eyes
They're asleep
As a crisp night falls
Like a blanket of snow
Upon scorched grounds
Calming embers glow
Then upon the days dawning
Cocoons begin forming
And I hear the cries
Of the butterflies calling.
