My Best Life

My Best Life

A Poem by butterfly

In a way I am content
I dont deserve richness in the end
I had a life of beautiful dogs
Once I was deathly afraid and my dad righted this wrong
Now I sit here on my couch thinking about this song written by the hands of God
I wish to thank you for all I got
All the ones I loved so much
I know I am not perfect and I wish I could be
I still thank you for breathing life into me
Maybe all we need to do to make it better is to love a little more
Maybe together we can kick in this stuck door
He tells me he is abused
I am still so confused
Why not choose the one who loves you?
I also wonder would it be the same
Would we still miss each other so much if we were granted every night and day
I dont push it
I dont want ever for life to take him away
Yet after this week its inevitable truth we all have to face
I said goodbye to many beautiful loves even for me there is no escape
My dad, my lola, grandparents, aunts, boyfriends, cats and dogs
I am no true angel from above
I am no butterfly
Yet I wish I could be
I could find my dogs when they are lost
Hear when they are stuck somewhere
how do you fight death the battle doesn't compare
Death wins every time
Yet he doesn't gloat for death there is no prize
He does his job
He comes to collect
Whether foe or friend
I think about us the other day he was complaining about his heart
He was eating ramen every day he tells me though we should be apart
Thats surely a recipe for a gray place
I thought if something happened how can I know
I am his secret child he loves the most
Its a sad thing what we have
Its not what I chose
Yet i cant control
I cant be with or without him
I can only hope that in each kiss
He would know I still love him, its him I miss
Yet all we have is this
 Still I am thankful for a moment, for in that short time
In those minutes and hours I lived my best life
