How do you capture feelings long enough
To write about them in coherent language
When all they do is fly, fluttering,
Blinding with reflected light?
How do you keep quiet shouts of exaltation
In this world plagued by insecurity and incurable pain
When they beat and thrash from inside pursed lips,
Voluminous, glorious, and elated?
How do you find synonyms or new ways to describe
Something so unique
So personal
So original:
Happiness simply pure?
I think I'll just smile.
