Proud Butterfly

Are you depressed? 
                         Do you think life is a hassle?
                      then just think of me for a second
                   
                           I am a proud butterfly!
                        Undergone stout challenges
                      Which you cannot even envisage

                            Panic about future?
                Oh! Its just a waste of precious time
           If I did it,I would haven't entered into cocoon

                                Do you know?
                       My life span is short,too short!
                  But still endured the intolerable pain
  
                              B'coz I wanna fly!
                     Just to fly high beyond the sky
               To fly across the colorful elegant flowers

                       Now, I am a buoyant soul 
            Fluttering fearlessly like a god sent angel
         Relishing the present moment without agitation
