You were not mine..
I saw you standing there,
my whole world in your eyes,
yet I couldn't call you mine

I took a step back because
I knew your love wasn't
blooming for me
this time it has found its
home in a new butterfly

I wish I could tell you..

I wanted to know the soft touch
of your hands on my face,
I wanted to memorize your smile
reading my words about your eyes,
I wanted to hear the conversation
between your fingers and my hair,

but I couldn't because
I love you and to me loving you
is another name for letting another
butterfly suck the love out of your heart....
