She sits there,
afraid for her life,
beatings, rape, abuse
just for that little girl
but hope flies in
to colour her life
and sits there
with her,
til daybreak

I really like this take on the prompt.... the butterfly being hope. Great write. Best of luck.

Beautiful
The structure creates a sense of peace, even though it deals with such a harsh top. Overall, very lovely. -
That's lovely
How are you?
