Unleash the Butterfly

Written: March 10, 2023 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A butterfly yearns to escape my heart, But my stubbornness holds it back, Stay inside; I won't abandon you, On exhibit for everyone to view, A butterfly yearns to escape my heart. Am I doomed if I remain upright? Do you intend to cause havoc? I feel a fluttering sensation in my heart Too savvy to let him out all night, When on the brink of slumber Stay positive. I hope you're here. Freedom is the failure of fear I pledge loyalty to my homeland! Unburdened by time, raise your head Backbreaking, blinded you to beckon, A peek into what holds the future, Release from the chains of slumber. The Peacefulness of the night draws you in, Don't mistrust stars guiding toward truth Escape from confusion of destiny. The winds are erratic, Cold and sternly, the helm is grasped Living without becoming a puppet Where motions are overseen by, Wires habits and figures predict For a master of the show to dupe them into actual mimicry.
