Blank

Blank

A Poem by butterfly


I sit near him and listen as he tries to define us
we were lost in desperation
Life connected us for inspiration
We don't have a voice when our heart makes the choice
There is no plan
It isn't in our hands
Love speaks from the heart and never explains
So baby don't sit in doubt as you try to figure it out lets just give what we have and leave the rest blank.
Under the same sky something connected you and I
We sat under the sun and felt a divine sunshine
Yet we can't let the moment pass us by
We can't question or have any answers
Take what we found and let the love surround us
Love doesn't ask why
I know we don't have forever in this life
I see couples at weddings saying I do after years turning cruel
I don't need diamond rings to make a vow true
We are still trying to navigate life
I don't want to make empty promises or just let this relationship be a phase
Lets just let it grow its own way. Throw the label out and leave it blank
I don't long for a cage
I only want a love that will last always
A place my heart can call home
Right now the fear is near
We are too afraid to release our souls
Yet the butterflies are enough to make us whole
Until then lets just give what we have
Show thanks and leave the label blank

I want to be a blank space
I want you as my white canvas
My artistic eyes will paint a lovely picture of you and I
Lost in an embrace
Kissing in the rain
Love doesn't explain why
As long as we stay strong we can still try
I don't know what is wrong or right
I don't have a voice when my heart made a choice
Why is it you?
Why can't the better one see me?
Love doesn't ask why
Love won't give any answers
The moment is here and I can't let it pass by
Under the same sky something connected you and I
A love found us under the divine sunlight
Now I don't think twice
Yet I sit beside you as you try to define us
Love or lust
Who knows?
In my eyes I only know love
As we grow we just have to continue to trust
When we get together its incredible
As the days pass the memories remain unforgettable
I don't know what we are
Yet I know love sparks the heart
As we wonder about lets throw the labels out
Couples get married only to divorce
Fancy weddings just end up acting cruel
I don't need a diamond ring to make a vow true
I don't need force for me to love you
I don't want to force you too
I like being free
I like you being free to be with me
I don't know what it means
I just know finally at last I can touch something from a dream. 
So baby come on with me, leave the label on the table
Together we built this paradise we will discover the lesson in the fable
We can only give what we have
I want to be your blank space
I want you as my white canvas
We can make the picture look like whatever we want to
As long as we stay true there is nothing we can't do
Love is the reason why we move.
