Butterfly

In memory of a beautiful woman. Unfortunately she was plegged with mental illness. She painted a picture of perfection until the pain could not stay closed within.Not until her last two years did anyone really know she was in pain.

Under the ground
you lie in your bed
of satin sheets
crimson red.

Unheard cries
screech above ground
in the air, on the breeze
heard the world round.

Panic arrives
on every door step
no direction no purpose
yet the people wepped.

For your undoing soul
poorly written
managed by the best
yet twice bitten.

You scream
you bulk
yet you fear
only those who loved you
tread near.

But never do they fashion
for your soul to scream
you were the most beautiful butterfly
the world had ever seen.

I find your verse very meaningful as they remind me of my mom who left this world/life early of her own choosing. Thank you, Karen. Love and peace,

Regis
