Splash! Not quite,
not quite a splash,
your ears may have misled you.
The darkness,
not quite as light
as you would love to believe.
The Butterfly
is just alive.
Just how alive is it?
Like a human?
Like a dog?
Or just a pretty picture?
She flutters,
away She goes,
She will never return from
the light,
not quite as dark,
as the void inside you mind.
The words
that you grasp at:
transfer from mind to paper,
lest they
may fly and flutter away,
so happy ever after.

There's a nice light touch to this, a delicateness, as if you didn't want to intrude on something fragile.

I'm not sure I understand it very much, but I am sure I love it very much!

I'm not sure I understand it very much, but I am sure I love it very much!

Oh! That's just how I feel about you!

This is indeed a beautiful poem and I am really moved by the profundity of your imagination.

I would call this poem "surreal". Everyone who reads it will get something from it, but it will remain a vision slightly set off center so you are never certain of the meaning, but cannot help but fall in love with it. :thumbs_up
