Fly Fly Butterfly

• Artist: mirachan3
• Description: This is a poem I wrote a few years ago. It expresses my feelings toward the world. It's how that no matter what happens in life I can learn to, take what I need to learn, transform to the person I need to be and then let go of my baggage. The use of the butterfly is highly symbolic though. It's a creature full of beauty and many don't see it's pain because it can constantly change and move forward, adapting to situations as they come.

Fly Fly Butterfly
Your mother is not here tonight
Your father does not know that you are alive
People don’t know that you’re alright
And it’s time to make something of your tortured life

Rise above and forever
Hold your pride
Hold your pleasure
Express your love
And never surrender

Take your head and hold it up high
Raise your hands toward the sky
Spin in circles and yell in pride
That no matter what happens
You are alright


Fly Fly butterfly
Your innocence is with you tonight
Your love is the only thing you have in sight
And people look at you in pity and hold sympathy tight
But you don’t need it ‘cause you are alright

Rise above and forever
Hold your pride
Hold your pleasure
Express your love and never surrender

Take your foot and stomp it on the ground
Take your hands and throw them around
Spin around in circles and let your anger out
But no matter what happens
You shall never give up

Fly Fly butterfly
Take all you have with you tonight
Turn it into something that you hold tight
That no matter what happens
You will step into the light
And things then will soon go right
But once and when they turn sour
Take your right and your power
Fly away and save yourself all the same

Fly Fly Fly Away
Butterflies are never in pain
