what i am is a jarred butterfly.
with new-grown wings.
because of you.
if you would just set me free.
if you could just let me out,
i would dance on the air for you.
and come to rest on your hand.
and linger.
i would walk up and down your long-limbed fingertips,
your hand would be my home.
and i would flutter to your lips,
dancing on your breath,
and kiss you the best i can.
but for now i look out through my cage of glass.
with new-grown wings.
and i cannot dance.
