All the things you never knew..

How many times does a butterfly blink

Before it learns to fly?

The sky is sprinkled over with countless stars

But how many there will remain?



Even as I fly, you fall

So close I can hear you breathe

So sorry I didn't keep hold of you



You don't know why I had to leave you

How I could ignore your every cry

All the while the downpour of your tears shattering the ground

So clearly pierced my heart



You don't know why I had to keep away

Circling in the sky above, just out of sight

So many are the things you never knew
