maybe it was the song I was listening to

or my head was paining me

but I cried over you and I don’t quite know why

the tear just came silently.

yes, it was only a tear, but

for an old, beaten soul like mine,

it felt like rivers, oceans

and ponds, really calm ones

where you find those white butterflies



i love those butterflies.
