Butterflies are strange creatures.<br /> They make you see how wonderful spring is with colorful flowers, but never let you see the thorns that can hurt their wings.

"and the salt in my wounds isn't burning anymore than it used to. It's not that I don't feel the pain. It's just I'm not afraid of hurting anymore. And the blood in these veins isn't pumping any less than it ever has and that's the hope I have, the only thing I know that's keeping me alive." - Paramore (Last Hope)
