Fly Free, Butterfly

Gorgeous little butterfly, trapped in your cocoon
If I show my love right now, you might never bloom
You showed me you are strong today, and you showed yourself
But watching you allow abuse is no good for my health 
While you build your self respect, you must do it alone
Because I feel you'll never heal if I make my feelings known
It pains me not to hold you, try to help you, call you mine
But I let my boundaries known and you still need a bit more time
So I told you, flutter butterfly, take flight and now be free
This breaks my heart but it's your choice if you fly back to me.
