• hundreds of butterflies
    in my stomach arrise
    waiting for you to answer why
    you said the words that made me want to die

    tens of thousands deep breaths
    and silence quieter than death
    you said you would have been torn apart
    when forced by parents to break my heart

    a million thoughts ran through my head
    full of hope, disolving the dread
    "you wouldnt hurt me because of them," i sigh
    he nods his head and i close my eyes

    my tears were a trillion roses on the floor
    when you sowed together the heart you tore
    and life's devoid of all sadness
    because with a simple "someday" came great happiness
