you give me butterflies.
little critters flutter around in my body.
capture them in a jar,
and keep them forever.
store me in your memories.

never let me die.
never let my fragile iridescent wings break.
don't let me break away from you,
fly away from you.

the wind will carry me to a new, without you,
and a place without you isn't a place that i want to be.
