Dark Butterflies
Sweeter than cotton candy.
 Like dew drops on the grass.
 Invisible crystals sparkle,
 In the still frame eyes.
 
 One dark secret,
 Traded for another.
 A common hobby found.
 An unlikely bond formed.
 
 Gracefully floating through barriers.
 One life melting into another.
 Painstakingly rare,
 Changing everything it touches.
 
 Always thinking good guys finish last.
 Making isolation a self given punishment.
 As it passes by alone,
 Catch it while you can.
 
 Held in a net.
 Not willing to run free.
 One becomes two.
 A butterfly and a faerie.
 
 Like a beautifully written character,
 Too good to be true.
 Darkness fading into light,
 Allowing Dark Butterflies to spread wing and take flight.
