The Butterfly Flies Away, Never to Return
By Sirin
A collection of poetry born from the quietude of an ordinary day.
Meticulously crafted with delicate precision, Sirin’s verses explore the vulnerability of the human heart through the lens of everyday existence.
"I long for a deeper innocence
To shield myself from the ache
To plunge into the abyss of connection
Unafraid of the passing of time."
— An excerpt from the collection
The Butterfly Flies Away, Never to Return is an invitation to feel. Throughout the volume, the tone strikes a balance between the vibrantly fresh and the cherished antique—resembling a vintage vinyl record discovered and replayed in the present moment. It communicates with the reader with disarming honesty and magnetic charm.
Each stanza moves with a simple, common grace, allowing space for the reader to rest and reflect upon the myriad stories encountered across different stages of life: the nostalgia of childhood, the fire of youth, the cycles of love and loss, the longing and the letting go, and the eventual transition from wholeness to heartbreak.
"I never questioned whether what I wrote was poetry. I only knew that I had to write—to simply pour it out. As for what it is called (or if it is called anything at all), I leave that entirely to the reader."
— Sirin
