It's a shame
Your smiles must end
And the diamonds must desolve
Into your past of pain.

I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man.

I await the day that he comes to you and whisks you away for an eternity of smiles and heart pounding kisses.......

A shame, indeed. Beautifully said, Koko.
