"Angel With Butterfly Wings"

Folder: 
Reality

she lays her head down at night and dreams of the world

she needs to escape from this hell she calls home



destined for something bigger she dreams of her future

she attempts to fly but her wings are small, new, still wet



unsure of what to do next she seeks comfort in her friends

what good is having friends with fake smiles anyways?



breaking free is like breath now it's needed to survive

big dreams, little wings, huge heart



have you realized that she's gonna make it?

she's gonna be everything she told you she would be



I dare you to get in her way now

I dare you to tell her she's wrong



wake up princess it's time to go

you're gonna make it now and if you don't I'll swallow my tongue



but when you're out there dancing in the lights don't forget me

don't let them take you under and change you...I couldn't take it



stay true, stay real, stay safe

now FLY!...

Author's Notes/Comments: 

i wrote this to myself...i'm talking to myself about needing to make it in this world and be a fashion designer but not to lose myself if it happens not to change...
