Who is she
The woman you  met
I don't believe it was I
It puzzles me
confuses

Am i that shallow
Heartless,Unfeeling
Is that the woman you saw
Cold in the afternoon sun
distant

I surely hope not
cause if that is all you saw
Then I guess i just escaped you
floated by on butterfly wings.
unnoticed

This way and that
haphazardly teasing
the face of a child
innocently laughing
floating

why did you not see me
am i that hard to see
I have no walls to protect
no armor to hide behind.
open

Or maybe your eyes don't see
Butterflys flying
Maybe you are looking
for bees that sting
distrust

Shame you did not see
the woman i am
To affraid to fly
laughter slowly fades
silent
hidden
