Awake

A butterfly

You said I was,

But I know talk

When I hear it.

A star in the sky,

I stay away because

If into the world I walk,

I shall fear it.

Release me from your hands,

Let me hatch from this shell,

No longer in your land,

My own personal hell.

I hear the secret,

The words I dread.

You say you love me!

Ha! You fool!

If love lies beneath it,

Inside your thick head

Then let me see you shove me

Into a world without your rule.

I find my home again,

No longer in this shell,

I freed myself and then,

I left you in this hell.
