Today I saw two butterflies flirting.
They were so absorbed in those aerobatics that they didn’t notice I was there.
They even landed on my leg, without even noticing the danger that gesture might offer.
That’s what happens with the first passion.
Is their love strong, because they were never hurt before?
Have they tasted rejection, have they felt the emptiness of goodbye?
Have they known they were once scary nymphs?
Do they understand the meaning of the word metamorphosis?
Has someone told them that they should not fly in this rainy, cold, Winter day?
That their love is supposed to bloom in Spring?
I didn’t give up on love.
I just need to dance.
I just need to breathe.

I DREAM OF THIS LAND
The land of dreams
by William Blake
Awake, awake my little Boy!
Thou wast thy Mother's only joy:
Why dost thou weep in thy gentle sleep?
Awake! thy Father does thee keep.
"O, what land is the Land of Dreams?
What are its mountains, and what are its streams?
O Father, I saw my Mother there,
Among the lillies by waters fair.
Among the lambs clothed in white
She walked with her Thomas in sweet delight.
I wept for joy, like a dove I mourn -
O when shall I return again?"
Dear child, I also by pleasant streams
Have wandered all night in the Land of Dreams;
But though calm and warm the waters wide,
I could not get to the other side.
"Father, O Father, what do we here,
In this land of unbelief and fear?
The Land of Dreams is better far
Above the light of the Morning Star."
