Lost Butterflies...

Once... It was...
That you smiled at me,
Then twice... your eyes...
And my heart was at sea...

Oh how I longed...
for a third,
But I was lost,
Pulling on threads..

This ship.. had sunk too deep,
Cupid, retired to sleep...
And alas a love, that was never mine to keep...

Not for once...

...

Still I loved you nonetheless,
And I will love you.. no more, no less..
Till the butterflies we made,
Till they come back home, back home to nest...
