In the examples mentioned above possessive suffixes (-im,-m) are attached to nouns. Check below for more possessive suffixes. You pick one of four according vowel harmony.
Kelebek+im > kelebeğim
kuzu+m > kuzum (after a vowel we add only -m, -n, etc. See below)
If the last letter is p,ç,t,k and is followed by a suffix that starts with a vowel it will change to b,c,d,ğ in that order. So we speak and write is as kelebeğim. Words with one syllable (one vowel) don't follow consonant mutation.
You can use the personal adjectives to add stress but they can be omited as well since it is clear from the suffix which person the word refers. We could say "benim kelebeğim" or just "kelebeğim".
