Butterfly

Flutter by, butterfly, sailing on the breeze, you can see eternity, as you float above the trees Butterfly, high above, as the zephyr sings, how I love the flicker of your gossamer silk wings Captured in the cage of my cocoon - not the life I had planned, tied by ropes of choices I have made, who will unbind my hand? Floating by, butterfly, on a sky blue sea, catch the wind with wingéd sails that set your spirit free Butterfly, rising high, far beyond my reach. Is the span between our souls one I could ever breach? Captured in the prison of this life - trapped forever it seems, will I ever be the butterfly soaring high in my dreams? Flutter by, butterfly, floating on the breeze, do you see my liberty, can you set my soul at ease? Just as I bid goodbye to this lonely land, You turn unexpectedly and alight upon my hand, Butterfly.
