Your way into my life

With smooth velvet wings

Fluttering,

Restless as a firefly

Sputtering neon off and on.

Flitting from buttercup

To rose was your prison,

Netting you was mine.

A faulty flouncy landing

Terminated your bars.

Shelved,

I covered you with glass

To brighten a hall in my life.

Now your stillness

Imprisons my guilt.
