The Butterfly's Wing

Your heart knows a lie

When your mind's being sly

You know you can run

But you can't ever hide.

One day you'll find yourself thinking Something absurd

Your ears will long for a whispering word And your fingers will ache to touch their skin

And lustful frustration will start building within

And you'll wish for a moment to be in their embrace

But you'll catch yourself and you'll try to erase

A memory that taunts you like snow in the spring

You'll try and get rid of the butterfly's wing you'll blink away hearts that appear in your eyes 

and brush away clouds from a sidewalk of sky

but after all this no matter how hard you try,

your heart always knows what your mind will deny
