Chasing Butterflies

Questions stir from slumber outside my closet door
The 'what ifs' and 'how coulds' brush fingertips against the wood I hear doubt feasting on worry Licking teeth that reflect the moon ~ sharp shards of white ice, dripping crimson tears It draws laughter from my butterflies ~ whispers falling from a trumpet, secretly subtle yet deafening, playing audience privately to my panic Symphony of senses left to trick my brain, as I beg for them to find sleep again My back lies flat against the sting of tomorrow... This door has no handle to hold on to anymore though |
