Precious Reflection

Precious reflection
Of an imperfect past
Butterflies pinned
Under this cold glass

Precious mementos
Tied to the post
Sashes and scarves
Treasured the most

Precious beliefs
Etched under your skin
This is where longing
Yearns to begin

Precious kept feelings
Inside your heart
This is where mercy
And freedom depart
