Are You Afraid?


The Last Butterfly
by
Wodkah





Are You Afraid?


Are you afraid? she asked of me
But I answered not her query
For I was much, so much afraid
But thrilled and much and very.

So long I'd waited for her call
So long I'd dreamed of this
Waiting for her promises
Waiting for her kiss.

And dreamless nights had turned me back
When no dream could be found
And I had wandered far and long
On wearied feet and ground.

Waiting on her special isle
Beyond the field of flowers
I sought her every tear-stained night
And waited many hours.

Until my heart had given up
And I turned myself away
To leave that place, with saddened face
And then I heard her say.........

My love, where goeth thou this night?
Why hast thou lost thy dream?
I've watched thee, lo, these many moons
Hidden by the stream.

I made a path of roses
I sang a lover's song
I lit for you a shining light
I waited all night long.

But you looked in all the wrong places
You heard not my sweetened tune
Your tears put out the candle's glow
And your darkness hid the moon.

Come here, beloved, come to me
Rest your weary head
I'll tell you tales to make you well
Of living things and dead.

See how my dark eyes shine for you?
See how my sweet lips smile?
I am a mystery, this is true
But in me, you'll find no guile.

I feel your heart like a thousand drums
Press against my own
I feel your blood rush through that heart
Like it's racing to get home.

Shh!!! Don't speak, don't say a thing!
There's time enough for words
I only want this sweet communion
That our two hearts have heard.

I know you've searched a long long time
And I have evaded you
But I had to prove unto myself
That you, my love, were true.

I'm not like other maidens
Who tease and employ tears
For if you make me weep, my love
I simply disappear.

And all you'll see is a fading glimpse
Or a shadow of my smile
You may hear a snippet of my song
And in dreams, hold me a while.

But not for long and not always
Will your eyes behold my face
For the shadows will take me if I cry
To a dark and dream-less place.

Until my heart is healed and whole
And my soul is once more well
For up till now, no man has learned
To break this cursed spell.

Are you the One, my ever love?
The man to set me free?
For if you're not, turn now and run
And let this maiden be.

For if you're not, turn now and run
And let this maiden be............

Teacher






 Teacher



I don't know how to say the things
I want so much to say
I don't know how to keep you here
And make you want to stay.

I never learned the lessons
For there was no one to teach
About love and life and how it works
So it stayed out of my reach.

I had no one to show me love
But of hatred, I had plenty
And they threw my love upon the ground
Until there wasn't any.

But still I knew deep in my heart
That love was a reality
And that there were people who had a lot
There just wasn't much for me.

So I learned to live in love songs
In movies and in books
I wrote characters that I could love
Who in life, gave me no looks.

I never understood just why
Love passed me by unseen
An ugly step-sister scrubbing floors
While in my heart, a queen.

The fairy stories of my youth
That I believed were true
Never came true in my life
Till my eyes fell on you.

And yet, I knew it couldn't be
That you could love me back
A man so rich in life and love
While I had only lack.

I never learned to love a man
Who loved me for myself
I was just used and then refused
And put upon a shelf.

My mother never told me
How to find love true
And I don't think she could have done
For her life was loveless too.

So I grew up on my own terms
Not knowing wrong from right
Loving all who crossed my path
But crying alone each night.

I guess I need a teacher
To teach me how love is
To give me many lessons
And make sure I pass the quiz.

I have a lot of love in me
And so much I'd like to give
Before my life comes to an end
I'd like to really live.

They say love will come when you're ready
And your teacher will come if you pray
Well, I'm ready for love now, my teacher
Teach me how to love you today.
