When You're Gone

Butterfly

Meaning:

A graceful, angelic creature that is often described as magic-like as it gently dances in the air, but is often hard to catch. It often cannot see its own wings, missing its won beauty. It goes where it pleases and pleases where it goes.

That's what he called me.

My world was drenched in color, but I used to see none of the beauty he saw in me.

And these had been my reasons...

1. Deep inside my heart used to be a darkness borne of a suppressed memory of seeing my mom take her last breath.
2. I used to live with the ache of knowing my baby girl never took her first breath.
3. At some point in life, I'd stopped yearning for love and learned to only give myself physically. That was, until I met Chaos who showed me what beauty awaits you when you finally stop being scared, open up your heart and spread your wings and fly.

But what happens when you lose your light while you're soaring amid the highest of clouds? What happens when you lose the one gift that was placed on this earth to resurrect your broken heart? What happens when the man you love so madly is taken from you so suddenly?
