the difference…
i’m going to learn from this…
and i’m going to grow… and someday i’m going
to love someone, and i’m going to lay at their feet more
love than they could ever imagine
but you… you will never be
anything more to anyone than somebody that
someone, somewhere, is recovering from.

The ‘she blooms wild and burns bright’ poem was written about a heartbreaking relationship. Another butterflies rising poem about that heartbreak was ‘the difference… i’m going to learn from this… and i’m going to grow… and someday i’m going to love someone’. It was written about the way she would rather be the one who got hurt than the one who did the hurting because she would grow and heal and learn to love better someday.
