What The Boy Said


Vamos juntos al jardín
Conseguirémos como muñecas escuchando

What The Boy Said
Look into the eyes
On a butterfly’s back

Then tell me about her soul
Not all eyes are windows

Some are  doors, closed
Needing to be opened

Some are hands, empty
needing coins to be placed on them

Nothing is free
Though we were all born that way

Perhaps the cocoon is the price
Of the butterfly’s winged liberation

Not all things can be paid with money
Nor should they be

What hot darkness would you endure
What stink of solitude

To reclaim what at once
You lost after your birth?
