Awaken the Butterflies

by believeinlove87   Dec 3, 2011


Blank eyes, frown upon her gorgeous face,
incapable of feeling any pain, any emotion,
betrayed, back stabbed by her boyfriend,
she has given up on love,
given up on having a care in this cold world.

Months have passed since that day,
each minute seems longer than before,
watching her life pass by before her eyes,
her only feeling is the lingering of his touch,
drinking herself into numbness,
alcohol has became her everything.

Walking along the empty streets,
accidentally running into this guy,
like electricity flowing through her body,
awaking the butterflies, fluttering in her stomach,
giggling I'm Sorry, the pain has finally
vanished into thin air.

Hours on the phone, together every night,
this broken girl came back alive,
an unexpected moment, no more questioning doubt,
putting down the bottle, life has came back
into her crystal blue eyes,
like static electricity, one touch; all it took
to awaken the butterflies.

    Awakened butterflies.... that just sounds... incredibly sweet like it's going to be a very sweet and touching poem, but it goes into a break up and finding someone else. It's sweet with some morbid twists. Lol.
