Life is to short
Butterfly fly away.
Save me from this awful place.
With tears and sorrow in a negative state.
Love is the only thing that remains.
My heart is full of beauty.
But my body is full of scars.
And I think to myself, is it time to go?
Or am I just dreaming.
My soul stuck in this battle of hatred.
Wishing it would just end.
Pulling out a gun and sticking it up to my head.
Before I get a chance to pull this trigger.
Theres a peaceful voice inside my head, telling me to STOP.
Telling me to wait.
Telling me there's so much more.
That all these people don't know what they are missing out on.
Love and beauty are the purest things in life.
And you have so much anger going on inside.
That you don't realize.
That your the reason your still alive.
And your not fighting this battle alone.
Your guardian angel is the love you seek.
That while that gun is pointed to your head.
You finally realize.
You were never alone and that you've made it this far why give up now.
So as your breathing heavily.
You put down that gun with no shame or doubt.
Get up and dry your eyes.
And walk outside.
Screaming to the world.
THIS IS MY LIFE NOT YOURS, AND IM NOT GIVING UP NOW.
Your foolish words can't hurt me no more.
Because I know that once I'm gone I can't come back.
And from this day on I will stand my ground.
And show people how strong I am.
And I will not let my butterfly of love.
FLY AWAY.

people really should stop being scared of judgment and just wing it and see how the time will take you through life. it's like a time machine once you go in and see the stuff you did and try to change it, it won't make things better in real time it just makes you think about the time you've wasted amd you should never turn a temporary situation into a long term problem.
