We walk such similar paths / one a son, the other a dad

our dreams kiss every night, we share courage, but only one can fight;

If destiny comes from a woman, and our future is defined by this

single moment;  I would truly loose all sense of time, if I erase your chapter

from my mind;

 Not knowing has me clinging to the tip of the edge, the reality of the finality

keeps me from hearing anything anyone has said; 

The verdict has already entered my head; If the love of your life

who is not your wife, begins to drift away how could you rely on faith;

Look away, try to pray, ask the heavens if there’s another way;

 The nightmare creeps in, you blame it on your sins;  If you would only

see that this is for the greater good, there’s therapy for your grief;

A certain silence erupts within the air, it’s the kind fed by despair;

When the pain is ready to set-in, there’s a cracking, a fluttering,

accompanied by a swift wind;

 A beautiful butterfly floats near the temple but closer to the eye,

close enough for you to hear…“I’m free”;

 So close but worlds apart, joy and happiness will not depart;

There’s so much I want you to see, is pushed back with “I came,

so I could be”;  I’ll turn, but never walk away, and each time I

see a butterfly, I’ll say…thank you Shiloh

for bringing such a beautiful day;
