Little Butterfly

Did you feel my heartbeat

When you were in my cocoon?

Would yours start to synchronize

When I would sing to you?

The little time I had with you

Before you flew away.

Was the happiest moments of my life,

But I really wish you'd stay.

Was I a good mommy,

For at least what you know?

I pray to you every night

From this aching world below.

I wish I could hold you,

And kiss your head each night.

I look up to the sky and see you

The shiniest star so bright.

My heart is broken truly

Never getting to say goodbye.

Fly back to me one day

My little butterfly.
