Knots of little butterflies that led a conga
In our stomachs [were]
Suddenly released and freed to flutter
Swiftly, around Blissful Obliviousness
Molded in the form of you and I.
Each of us painted in fluorescent flames
Life around us fading in the background
One subtle symphony of pounding hearts
Voicelessly wording all the essentials
Each of us swearing, in that one moment—
the world stood still in fleeting perfection.

simplisticly beautiful
I love the thought of butterflies dancing the conga in stomachs
Also the personaification of "Blissful Obliviousness molded in the form of you and I".
Simple and beautiful thoughts with a perfect last ending line.
