Humans Are Butterflies

The way life is

Goes a little something like this

First born learning to crawl

Going with the motions of it all

Trying to learn who's friend or foe

Self identity comes naturally slow 

You walk around happily 

When things go right finally 

You're growing now gettting the hang of things

Ready for whatever the world decides to bring

The way life is 

Goes a little something like this

Suddenly you feel trapped in a cocoon of darkness

Confused and alone leaving you lifeless

No one there to hear your screams for help

Only person you really got is yourself

You close your eyes , ready to give up 

You can't take it anymore, you've had enough 

Pain consumes your body with each ache

Transformation takes place day by day

The way life is 

Goes a little something like this

You finally open your eyes one last time

The world suddenly seems more bright

You have been set free with new wings to fly

No longer is the sudden urge to die

A new purpose has been born to keep you alive

Alongside you in the dark was the Hopeful Light

You've now experienced a butterfly in real life

Finding your way as time goes by

Never lose hope as the catepillar tried

Cocoons will trap you but you'll always survive
