I Like Butterflies.

I have Noone                                                          
Noone to sing to me
Noone to carry me around,
While the colorful butterflies
Share the latest gossip....
Someday, I'll cut my veins
And buy the exact same dream-
With the spring and the trees and...
The air which reminds you
of whatever you will forget..
Who cares
Who cares about the smells
And the smiles of the time
When a morning breeze
Invites you to a birthday party
The squirrel is having
Summertime
Maybe I do sound dillusional
But it's so much better than pain
Hurry and let me go
Before I start crying again
Because I feel the tears already
You hurt me
Every single day
Every spontaneous moment
Whenever the angels need another tickling of their wings
WAiting
Maybe soon after the commercial
Bad things will happen to you
But it never happens
As you always laugh
I realize that God is laughing too
Because I like butterflies
Look...these black holes
Now, you totally ruined
My phychedelic experience
I was actually happy with
All my coloring books
So why did yOU have to kill me
Soon, I will go insane
But then the butterflies
Won't be real
And that squirrel
Will be too old to play....

Gee-- so sad: and written on my birthday.
Hope things are not that bad for you now.
Sad times can make good poetry however.

Oh so terribly sad  
Only hoping that this is not real (the part about you cutting your veins) hope that things couldn't be that tragic in life for you. Poetry is a good way to vent feelings and I'm hoping that is the way you'll always vent yours.
