Thought It Was

I thought you were the butterflies I’ve been waiting for

The color of a sunrise and sunset that’ll never look the same but I’ll always love

or the clearest and bluest sky I’ve ever seen

or a comfort movie I accidentally discovered

or a cup of matcha latte in the afternoon

or an instant noodle I always had on a rainy day

or the sound of the waves and the sound of the leaves softly blown by the wind

or birds chirping in the morning

or drizzle in the day

or a book I thought boring but turned out so good that i couldn’t stop thinking about it

or chips i had while watching a movie

or a pillow for me to sleep or to hold and hug

or a blanket that i use to sleep no matter how hot the weather is

But no, dear

you’re just stars at night in the city

or a cute chunky stray cat I'll never see again

or a movie so good that just showing for a week at a cinema

or a rainbow i see once in every i-dont-know years that'll only last for five minutes

or a book i thought i know how it ends

or anything i wished to happen but never will

Oh, God. It wasn’t that deep..
