"Happiness is like a butterfly..."


Locked in a Cage where the walls aren't there Free to roam the roads but they all lead nowhere Always walking to find Where the Butterfly roams Always chasing Always following Because to stop Is to let the Moth come Locked in a Cage where the walls aren't there For the Cage holds only one of the pair Most go for the Butterfly until they learn to stay Others go for the Butterfly to run away from the Moth getting in the cage
