“the world is loud
and i wanna get lost…
with you.
so let’s just go anywhere.
any miles an hour.
nothing but highway lines
with your hand on my legs
and a slow. kiss.
on your neck
and our racing hearts
so deep in this messy love
and the destination;
wherever wild runs…
playlist in the background,
stars outside the windows,
let’s just drive.’
– butterflies rising
The butterflies rising poem ‘the world is loud and i wanna get lost… with you. so let’s just go anywhere’ was published on September 13, 2020, and is published in her poetry book ‘she’s flowers and fire’. The poem was started by the last line ‘playlist in the background, stars outside the windows… let’s just drive’, and that line originally came from an essay that was included in her poetry book ‘wild spirit, soft heart’ that was the story behind a breakup poem called ‘drive’. butterflies rising took the line and turned it into the new poem to turn the heartbreak into something beautiful.
