Dear Butterfly, This is me again, your Diary

Dear Butterfly,

I have heeded the request

To find my way

But which way do I go?

I know you said the answer was within

And right in front of me

But I can't see anything

Just my reflection

That looks up back at me

Like I am a butterfly in a mirror

Except it is just my wings

and the reflection is my tears on my butterfly

clipped wings.

This is my butterfly song: Don't tell me to clip my wings and fly like a Butterfly

Don't tell me to soar

Like I never did before

Don't tell me it is in the spirit

When I can't seem to control the wind

Don't tell me to stay in the cage

Like a fairy you want to keep

To steal every light of its magical powers

And Don't tell me to clip my wings and fly like a Butterfly.
