Oh Butterfly, My Butterfly

Butterfly, oh Butterfly,
Come out of your cocoon.
Please, land upon my petals,
I long for your touch,
To feel the gentle beat of your wings.
Let me receive your tender kiss,
Take my life into you,
So you may live.
Such sweet nectar.

I want to nourish you,
To know that without me,
You couldn't survive.
I want to feel my life pour into you,
Make your heart beat,
And your wings flutter.

Let me be the reason you live,
Wrap your wings around me,
As I wrap my life around you,
And lift me away,
Higher and higher,
Help me to fly,
Make me free.

In your embrace I won't whither,
With your love I shall grow strong,
In your beauty I shall bask,
You shine like the sun.

I shall help you line,
Please, do the same,
My life is in your hands,
My faith is in you,
And so is my heart.

Time will do it's worst,
So please, hold me tight,
Keep me always with you,
In your embrace,
In your thoughts,
In your heart,
And in your life.

In your arms I want to die,
And to heaven, with you I'll fly,
Oh Butterfly,
My Butterfly.

Wow, if only my boyfriend had the capacity of such tender words...
I commend you on putting yourself out there in such a way that is judgemental and succeeding.
:]
This poem was very heart warming.

I'm sorry I can't agree with the rest of the crowd on this. Though it's written with some skill it's full of cliche and dry metaphors and the such, and if given the time to pick through them all it's bordering on something far from tender and loving and lustful is a word that falls to mind. But you gave it a shot and I'm only one negative opinion in sea of positive. It's not that it's not a good poem it's more of...I've heard it a thousand times and it's boring
