Atala butterflies crawl through my thoughts

to peer into my eyes.

I subconsciously sing all about you to onlookers, I get nervous.

So I answer them with lies.


At night you sweetly perform, like violets,

a dainty ritual on my lips.

I learn the way you love me to confidence; I'm to no longer let them

lay my soul out in strips.
