Butterfly Catching

Butterfly catching
Tender heart snatching
Secrets reveal
Truths in the dark.

Butterfly catching
Tender heart snatching
Its hard to dampen fire
Once the wind ignites the spark.

The ground; it rumbles
Then the whole world crumbles
The dominos,
They fall all about.

As the ground rumbles
And the whole world crumbles
Each heart beat
-A raging scream and a shout.

In the eye there is calm
Before the next cause for alarm
A whisper, then a whoosh
And then a BOOM.

In the eye there is calm
Before the next cause for alarm
When things are thrown about
- destroyed in the room.

But try as you might
It just doesn’t look right
When you try
To restore every part

And try as you might
It just doesn’t feel right
Cos’ you changed
As did that place in your heart.
