''The Butterfly'' is poetry, short story, about materialism, and need for more even if you have too much. In this text, a butterfly has everything and all of the land. But this is not enough for her. She wants more. A Butterfly depicts people, and people's need for more. Nowadays, we are obsessed with material things. In ''The Butterfly'' river is life, karma. And everything we do, life gives us back. And if you want too much, life hit you hard, and then, you don't have anything. Be careful, be kind, and be humble. That is the perfect formula.

In this book, I took it upon myself to air out all of my grievances, my intimate thoughts, my happiness, my disappointments, my sadness all out in the open, for all to see. I wanted to face it all. To stare my mortality dead in the eyes, and let the lingering stare sit, I wanted to simmer the feeling of weakness, of every single type of emotion, completely digest it, and let it manifest genuinely, reading it, again and again, perfecting it, again and again, until the feeling of pain subsides. I there is anything that I want you to take from this book, is time. Yes, just a word, time. It goes by, so have not regrets, and never leave something from saying. If you are looking for a sign to remind you, to tell you parents, brothers, sisters, daughters, grandparents, wives, friends you love them? This is it...
