Butterfly

Butterfly

The more time we spent apart
It was like more lessons had been learnt
It was my goal to have growth 
And that is something I have earned
It’s the small changes in myself that I see
The person I’d always wanted to be

I saw the good in you 
When others did not
I defended your name 
Only you somehow forgot
I was in fear of losing someone I loved 
I was in fear of becoming lost
I had to find my way to escape
Before my heart got hurt even more
Before it was to late

On the other side of fear 
Lives freedom

You don’t deserve too see me grow my wings
see me learn to fly
All I want to say is 
I wish you the best
Goodbye.

Let your strength show through your poetry!
Bravo poet.

You captured my heart with this poem. The story is upbeat
and inspirational. How you can be so in love with a person
that even when the end has come, to part ways, you manage
to pick yourself up, dust off your poetic voice, then jump for
joy when you wake up one morning, with the courage to write
something painfully beautifully.

So, touching!

I’m also pretty partial to butterflies.

You are like, a beautiful monarch butterfly with spectacular wings
that dare to dream.

I was inspired by your poem, to write a poem about monarchs.
Butterflies, represent change, perseverance and strength.

Do you have any other poems about nature, or about butterflies? 

Thanks for sharing your poem. I really enjoyed reading it. 
I cannot wait to read more! 

Have a great night/or day :)
