Neon Lights

I Find Her In Our Backyard
Sitting In A Tree
Whispering To The Insects
“I Just Want To Be Set Free”

I Come And Sit Beside Her
Not Knowing What To Think
A Butterfly Lands On My Knee
She Gently Says “Don't Blink”

I Open My Eyes, Wide
As It Flutters Its Tiny Wings
A Single Blink And It Was Gone
As The Little Girl Starts To Sing

The Butterflies Leave
As The Moon Comes Around
She Screams Up To God
“I Just Wanna Be Found”

Next Morning She Is Gone
A Horror-Feeling Tings
One Little Suicide Note
And Butterfly Wings
