Words of inspiration

[Chevalier des Poissons]

Despite the appearance, this poem has nothing to do with anyone here

A butterfly came to me today
More beautiful than my eyes could ever see
You just made me a good day
Did you come for me?

So close, so far
I don't even know who you are
So, please, please, tell me
Who are you? Are you my will to be free?

Fly, my little butterfly.
Go ahead up to the sky
Show the world your beautiful color
And come back to me and amuse me more

Butterfly, I want you.
Please, want me that way.
Look at me, say 'I do'
And let us be together every day.

You are my inspiration
You are my dear
With you I have no such thing as fear
My dear token of appreciation

Maybe you are just a dream
A wonderful deviation
A redemption for my sin
A sign of a new station

And the butterfly is gone
Again, I am all alone.
But she left me her heart, her creation
Some words of inspiration.

And now it's my turn to thank you for sharing.  I thought this was really beautiful, there's an emotional flow (flit?) to it I really like.

Very beautiful Chevalier...you should be proud of the words you wrote here. I am a huge fan of poetry. I love the way I fluttered through the stanzas, but while it read so simplistically, it touched some very deep emotions. Very clever and very beautiful. Thank you for sharing!

Miss Luna, welcome back. Long time no see ^^ I am glad you are back, and that you liked my poem =3

The poem portrays a feeling of someone who has succumbed to their own depression and apathy, that then feels alleviated by something that brings color and light back into his world.  Neither the joy he feels nor the object of his affection can always be with him though. However, the temporary happiness he had reminded him how worthwhile it is to continue.

That was the metaphor I got from it though I have no clue if that's what Shambler was going for.

[Chevalier des Poissons]

Actually you just reproduced with utter perfection what I was feeling on that day. Very nice =D Thank you =3

[Little Darkling]

wow this is really really beautiful! Great work!

[Chevalier des Poissons]

Oh, thank you very much =D I appreciate it

[Chevalier des Poissons]

I would like to thank you all for the comments, and thank all the readers for giving a chance to read my humble words.

I have made a sequence to that poem, which is a version where the person realizes he just fell in love for the butterfly:
