A Butterfly's Passion

Every passionate, strong beat of these wings
Are my heart,
Pounding harder and harder daily.
As I wrestle with my insecurities and struggles.
                 
As this butterfly spreads its wings and soars through the air
It represents the freedom I will one day possess.
For I chose to fight
And not allow this illness to dominate me.
