- The Song of Solomon (in the Bible) is believed to be an allegory. You can read about it at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Song_of_Songs .
- This isn't typically romantic, but it dances along those lines: "Black Butterfly" by Triin Kann Sitting lonely in a white padded room The silence is too loud and too cruel I'm cold, and alone, but they don't care On the road they left me somewhere But I ended up sitting here barefoot With an evil smile and a wicked look I can hear her coming through the air Just last night we played truth or dare But she didn't really talk that much And she never lets me gently touch Her dark little broken velvet wings When she comes, the angels sing She's my only friend through the days But every evening she flies away She brings darkness to this room Sometimes she whisper's that I'm doomed She makes me think I'm losing my mind Searching for peace I know I can't find Her wings are broken, she wants to break mine Without her here I feel perfectly fine I feel her presence, I know she's already here She plays on the strings of my mind and fears She's circling around me, and looking at me She knows exactly what I think or feel Room's filled with loud silence and bright darkness She knows she's making me become a real mess She fills my mind with doubt and fear And whispers insanity in both of my ears Once I thought butterflies are sweet and free But this one here is bad, and meant to torture me I hide my scars, my cuts and bruises In this game there's no room for losers I know I could just catch and kill her But then a part of me would start to hurt Sure I'm sober, and I know I'm still sane I'd like to watch her burn with a bright flame I was told I have to walk my road alone But for some reason she always comes along On her broken wings at night she flies away But for now my 'friend' black butterfly will stay I know in my heart that one day I will grow strong Then she can't hurt me like she's done for so long On that day I will hear my black butterfly cry And then watch when she slowly dies
