Butterfly Orgy

They swarm
A flutter of a thousand wings
Browns and golds colliding
A beautiful dance they weave
Screaming along in captivating silence
The mesmerizing sight unfolds
Bright and daring in the sun
And then meet a dismal fate
Windshield wipers make poor mates

Two pink lines

Breathe
Just breathe
Just open your eyes and breathe
Always there is so much pain
A heartbreak each and every time
How important two little lines can be
The beginning of a life or the ending of my hope
Breathe
Don’t think
It will all be okay
Just look
The longest minute of my life
And then it is there
Another line
Pink and sure
Another breath inside of me
