Butterflies Are Free

by boo - Taurus


              Once there was a caterpillar
                    Living in a shell

                 Happy to be in a place
               Where everything went well

                  No  one to bother her
                  No  other worms to see

               Locked up in her dark cacoon
               She thought that she was free

              Hey, little worm, don't you see
                 Only butterflies are free
           Come out of your shell and fly with me
                 Only butterflies are free

              Something took that caterpillar
                   As she slept one day

              Woke her up and gave her wings
                 And helped her fly away

               People too can live in shells
                   Afraid of being free

          But whatever changed that fearful worm
                Can change both you and me

Reason for writing:
