The Butterfly Project has been created for self-harmers who feel they are ready to stop and need the motivation or support to do so.
You're not alone. There are people who love you. This one is maybe not the best or the most beautiful poem you ever read, but it's for you.
Stand tall through the rain,
maybe you won't feel the pain,
lock these words inside your heart,
you are beautiful like art.
You alone draw your life,
with a pencil not a knife,
you are not just what you see,
there's so much more you can be.
My hand is there for you to hold,
even when the night gets freezing cold,
no matter if we turn to stones,
no matter if the fire eats our bones.
'Cause we are dragons,
yet still children,
and we have a special way,
you'll always have a place to stay.
If you can't win the fight,
don't worry I'm your knight,
I swear I'll make things brighter,
your personal fighter.
What will happen, I don't know,
but you'll never lose your glow,
I can tell you'll be heard,
you will fly like a bird.
