Where Butterflies Never Die

A/N: A short drabble and my interpretation of a beautiful song.
Song: Where Butterflies Never Die by Broken Iris


Life is a gift sent from Heaven. Two souls unite to create another – a beautiful existence. It is a merging union of love and of new breath. It is a moment to treasure; cherish until time itself ceases.

That is what it is meant to be. Meant; not is.

Slender fingers tumble across ebony and ivory their dance elegant yet clumsy. Darkness encompasses all. Sight is not needed; a melody of the heart, a movement the body never forgets.

"Restful mind and peaceful eyes," Mind and soul crumble, eaten away by the darkness blossoming from within, "When sound is gone, then you will find," It is self induced in a hopes to numb what was, "It's all the same for the Dreamers," To leave this Hell on Earth, "it's all the same," And join what lies beyond in a world where the sun never fades and butterflies never die, "… For us…"
