Butterfly Stitches
Tears sting my eyes, but its no surprise,
This is all I've ever deserved.
In scrapes and bad weather, to sticking together,
And its always me ending up hurt.
From never, then sometime, to throw me a lifeline,
I'm drowning with no one to see..
You showed me great things, but now un-clip my wings,
I'm done giving up being free.
