Like a butterfly in glass, I want to fly away to you but…
““Like a butterfly in glass, I want to fly away to you but the invisible walls contain me. It’s not time. Hard to accept when I feel your words calling to me. Your soul beckoning me with its pull. Come to me, you say in one breath; stay, you say in another. I taste your lips on mine and pray I make my way to you As a butterfly chases its freedom. So will I.””
