The Lost butterfly

In the silhouette of the butterfly,
is the dream.
The dream, that paralysis’s ones soul.
Unwavering gaze, at a twisted world,
Everything that exists is powerless.
The beauty within your clasp,
But a touch that cannot be felt.
Will you ever break free from the shadow
that haunts?
Life’s wings flutter, ready to implode,
drawing near,
the calling,
Fears about to explode.
You are here, but not there.
Standing alone dazed, shattered,
Worn and battered, searching
For the dream to come true.
Wondering, if you could become
The butterfly,
Would everything
You feel become heartfelt,
Could you fly away from,
The numbness of darkness?
Could you drift over the horizons
That parallel life?
Change the world that you breathe in.
Shield the droplets,
That turns your eyes full of red.
Reaching,
For something that just isn’t there,
Nor will there ever be, will you ever be
Unbound to,
Drift with the dream of a butterfly.

It seems I am drifting over the horizons with your dream butterfly.....Good..very good.
God bless, you are not only a humourist but also a surrealist.

Could you fly away from,
The numbness of darkness?
I am not sure but I sure the hell want to!!! So many questions. So much imagery. I am not sure what is being said here...a bit ambiguous to me...but it made me want to be flying through that sky with the butterly, even if it might be but a moment. Because my life sure feels like it may implode at any moment.
