Dear caterpillar,
Look around,
Huge green brown buildings
Oppressing you.
-
Look around,
You can't see anything.
Nothing would let your gaze through.
-
Look around,
You're encaged in your own mother earth.
-
Look up,
The butterflies are happier,
There where no danger can burst.
There where your happiness can't be cursed.
-
Look at you :
The fireflies are brighter,
The birds are prettier,
The dragonflies are faster.
-
-
You just wish you'd be different, right ?
You know you should be..
-
Hey look yall ! He blacked out ! You're reborn !
Where did these wings come from ?!
These stunning colors, all these powers ?!
-
No, no, it's not right.. Why are still :
The sun brighter,
The moon prettier,
And the wind faster ?
Why aren't you perfect enough yet ?
Changing was useless,
You should have stayed the same,
You should've loved yourself.
As a catterpillar.
-
You were beautiful, you know ?
But now ?
You just can't be any weirder. More different.
So i'll just assume you're wearing a fake dangerous costume,
Because you can't exist. You don't exist.
A caterpillar can't just become a happy gorgeous butterfly.
-
Stabs and kisses,
Your very dear open minded society that accept you the way you are.
//
Your insecurities and anxieties that will haunt you until you realise
How gorgeous, perfect and real you've always been.
