Butterfly, fly away home...

Curtains shut,
Blackened bedroom,
Writings on the wall, of hope,
Wishing she had a voice,
Clinging on to daily quotes,
Hurting herself with no choice,
I could hear her, pour out her soul,
Singing in silence, a hidden beauty in every note,
My little Butterfly, fly away home, to a place only you know,
A year ago, in a cocoon of not being worthy,
Cutting herself, tired of being sad and angry,
Having a conversation on the swings,
Given advice, I said what life can bring,
You either be strong minded, knowing you're not alone,
Such a smile, tears trickled down, as a father, I was a ghost,
Singing in silence, a hidden beauty in every note,
My little Butterfly, fly away home, to a place only you know,
A teenage girl, heavy shoulders in a broken world,
Thinking why did this happen, why do I have to hurt,
Now, such a beautiful woman, an amazing, blue eyed dreamer,
Full of nerves, shaking with fear, she sang in front of her teacher,
How far have we come, to hear her voice I feel nothing but love,
To hear her voice, no more in silence, like an angel flying above,
She wants to be free, she wants to escape with music lessons,
Two daughters in my life, each day I live and breathe, this is such a blessing,
Singing in silence, a hidden beauty in every note,
My little Butterfly, fly away home, to a place only you know,
Escape,
Go to that place with every note,
Go,
Fly away home,
Butterfly,
Fly away home...
