Butterflies within me
They are trapped within me
and they sing ...
can you hear them ?
They sing through my smile,
they sing through my laugh,
they sing through me all the time
I have so many of them,
I want to set them free,
they deserve to fly high way up high
as far as their wings can take them
they need to break through all the boundaries
and sing to be heard
right now they live trapped in a cage
within me
im afraid sometimes to let them go
they are so pretty
so fragile
yet they are strong as they huddle
around my soul
to protect me, guide me
and always have been with me
I hear their wings flutter
they are my butterflies
so many I have each one
is a different part of me
one day they will be free
