Chasing the butterflies

by Nay Af on November 28, 2010

Surrounded by the heavenly light,

She ran, chasing the butterflies of dreams.

She wished to touch them.

Their coloured wings stirred her sight,

And she ran fast.

She crossed wide rivers,

Climbed up the huge mountains,

She went through the meadows.

Passed through the deserts,

Showered by the cosmic fountains,

Rising up, above and high,

At the distant corner of the universe,

Finally, she won in holding the wings of one butterfly.

In the corner, behind the chair,
a pair of dusty wings are sighing, waiting for the colorful dreams choir
You can't sweep the fly lessons forever behind the door
collect the broken mirror pieces from the floor.
show who you are and what your Nostalgic guitar wants
You need to dare touching coloured fingers and mirror them again inside your soul.

I love it.I love the idea of not being there to share the same dream.You should have insisted on you and your own urge in the end and to erase some other repetitions in order to make the message stronger, sharper.Your poem is a cry.I have felt it so many times.I know it's still there, in each of us.I like you.You are good.

Chasing butterflies!! Butterflies have this different realm of realities and fantasies and you were able to capture the essence of it.
