Folded in my arms you are a butterfly in reverse,
Giving up your wings to deliver my curse.
Your letting go of me.

Your letting go to
Sail to an island unknown,
Failing to find your way back home
Leagues beneath, away from me.

All those perfect days made of glass,
Put on a shelf where they can cast
Perfect shadows that stretch and grow,
On the imperfect days down below.


Hey so this is an older poem of mine but i thought i would throw it at you guys see what yall think of it. Thanks!!!

Folded in my arms
you are a butterfly in reverse,
Giving up your wings, will deliver my curse.
Your letting to of me.
i think you meant "GO"


Your letting to to
again the same word "GO"

Sail to an island unknown,
Failing to find your way back home
Leagues beneath, and miles afar
too far away from me, your star.
added this orange part instead just to see how it sounds.


All those perfect days comma made of glass,
Put upon a shelf where they can cast
cast a lovely portrait,one I know will last
one i know where perfect shadows that stretch and grow,
On the imperfect days down below.
Will always remind me of
of the meaning in my life,
which is you and only you.

Heya Dogs

I am not very sure this review will be of any use to you. I just wanted to let you know that this poem is epic. I love the beginning. It was great how you started right out with the metaphor about the butterfly and straight away I was eager to read more. The ending was great too! I cannot see any faults so I generally like it.

That was my favourite stanza, it was just really image creating. I loved it.

Haha thanks, but sad to say this isn't all mine, as snork pointed out in a few of my other poems i just took bits and pieces from different poets and mixed it together and called it mine, i was unaware that that was another form of plagiarism. But thanks for the comment regardless lol.
