"I loved all the boys with soft sad eyes and lost souls." -Grace Coddington


A butterfly's wings can flutter up to 700 

times per minute and it sounds

just like my heart beating at 

a million miles an hour

whenever you're around

 

I think when we met you

placed a caterpillar in my chest

because it took months for

this exhilaration to grow;

Slowly, then blossoming suddenly

this butterfly unfolded within me

Because before my heart

took flight out love was not love

and your I love you's were

simply words but now

You speak affection through

the way you look at me or with the

tiny smile that plays on 

your lips when you catch me

staring at you in pure admiration.

 

I constantly hear your laugh

ringing in my ears and on lonely 

nights I can see you hunched 

at my desk, writing and you are

so beautiful; I think if I

could love you any more my 

heart would burst spilling

a thousand butterflies grown

from your touch.
