BUTTERFLIES CRY
EMBRACE OUR DIFFERENCE AND COME TOGETHER BECAUSE OF WHAT WE HAVE IN COMMON…
🦋
My handsome ways
And Charming personality,
Rendered you to despise me…
Have not you took notice that
Beautiful Things Are Not Perfect.
I Am not my fortifications…
I Am my Heart.
Just because I preferred to Cultivate Love for you doesn't imply that I'm susceptible…
It means that I am a Human-
A Caterpillar and a Butterfly are not the same, but in order to be one you have to be the other…
I'll share all of my love until you see that, comparison kills the Love between Humans-
I am, Imperfectly Perfect 👌
I lived as a caterpillar before evolving to find out that Butterflies Cry.

Love this imagery. Well done!
"Butterflies Cry" is a poignant and evocative title that encapsulates a profound and emotional experience. It conjures a juxtaposition of delicate beauty and poignant sorrow, hinting at a narrative that explores the complexities of human emotions and the fragility of existence.
First of all, I need that butterfly swinging bench in my life! Another beautifully crafted poem. Two lines that resonated the most: "I Am not my fortifications…" and "A Caterpillar and a Butterfly are not the same, but in order to be one you have to be the other…" I feel like I could write a whole essay about these lines.
😮😮😮😍🤩💖🥇 Amazing poem full of insights and realizations. Excellent job my friend. Especially loved "A Caterpillar and a Butterfly are not the same, but in order to be one you have to be the other…" 🔥
So transformative and compelling, bravo and congrats on your TS!
Great symbolism. You have to go through the growth process to realize the growth.
Just like we can't have light without dark, we can't have perfect without imperfect. Love the sentiment of this piece! Congrats on the Top Story.
Beautiful poem HLtheP! Loved the last line, especially💙Anneliese

How cute
Fantastic poem and picture, Lonzo. I love butterflies because of the way they transform. For years, they've been a great life lesson for me, and your words echo that. Congratulations on Top Story. So well deserved! 🦋💕😊🦋
So lovely and poignant, Lonzo! I love it.
Sweet and painful all at once.
Superb 👍
The imagery in your thoughts is just as lovely as the picture you chose to represent them. Congratulations on the top story. :)
Congratulations !!!🎈🎉🎊
Love that last line.
Congratulations on your TOP STORY lil bro! 🎉🎉🎉🎉😁
That last line is so perfect I loved it my friend congratulations on your lovely top story 💓💞💞
Butterflies were always my favorite! Beautiful poem!
Well done and congratulations :)
I relate to this one so much! “comparison kills the Love between Humans” YES. And people comparing themselves to butterflies have no idea what transformative hell we went through to get here. We were cocooned and invisible then. Congrats on a wonderful Top Story. 🥂🦋
There it is. Congrats on the TS.
It was so deep that you said we have to be a caterpillar first in order to become a butterfly! Loved your poem!
You are imperfectly perfect, while I am perfectly imperfect, a caterpillar who never moved past the cocoon.
