Summertime Butterflies

When it gets too high
I start the laughter
When it drowns me in
I double over.

When I try to catch it
It slips right out
And when I get it rid
It comes again and about.

It's a drug that's way too strong for me
I can't afford it either
I don't think it'll fit in me-
I'm not a good reciever
I lost control and modesty
And though I try to I can't lie
But I think that this time I swallowed
Three summertime butterflies.

They mix and match positions
Like circus play inside
They make me feel so dreamy different
Yet ever so alive.

A sweetass sickness
A lively death
Taking sanity
A friendly theft.

It's a pull that's way too strong for me
I can't afford it either
Don't think i can keep myself in one
Can't hold my mind together
I lost control and modesty
Never thought I would find a perfect guy
But I guess that this year I swallowed
Three summertime butterflies.

It changes my outlook to positive
I can now forget the bad
At least for now it's gone
Since sanity is now past.

It's a curse that's way too strong for me
I can't afford it either
Don't know how to unbless this spell
Still, I enjoy this fever
I lost control and modesty
I'm in love and can't disguise
Now everyone is noticing
I swallowed three summertime butterflies.

    I really like this poem. My favorite lines would have to be: It's a curse that's way too strong for me
    I can't afford it either
    Don't know how to unbless this spell
    Still, I enjoy this fever
    I lost control and modesty
    I'm in love and can't disguise
    Now everyone is noticing
    I swallowed three summertime butterflies

    Good luck in the contest.
