Butterfly Die

This is a simi-freestlye poem.

Turn around, get out

Just hold your breath and leave

I don't wanna hear you grieve for me

You used to say how we would be

Together for all eternity

But you couldn't see 

You were losing me 

You never

Would let me be

You never 

Would set me free

Felt like I was

Trapped in a cage

Fighting for Survival

Trapped in a cage 

Fighting just to be free

Because I was trapped

By you

The ground, it trembles

As you walk away

Your so full of anger

But I'm not gonna say a word

don't deserve it

You used to say

You would be here for me

 I swear you didn't care

So just go away

You never

Would let me be

You never 

Would set me free

Felt like I was

Trapped in a cage

Fighting for Survival

Trapped in a cage 

Fighting just to be free

Because I was trapped

By you

If I had it my way

You wouldn't see the light of day

I have you locked away 

So I could never see that face 

For the pain  I have to live with 

You thought I'd forget 

No I never will

You broke my trust not once

But twice

You keep a butterfly in a cage

and the butterfly is gonna die full of rage

And you'd sit there

And watch

As it would dies 

Right before your eyes

I swear you didn't care

You didn't even take the time 

To get to know me

You don't know me and you never will

I just hate the feeling you gave me

Would set me free

Felt like I was

Trapped in a cage

Fighting for Survival

Trapped in a cage 

Fighting just to be free

Because I was trapped

By you

Like a butterfly in a cage 

It will die full of rage

If it doesn't escape...

This poem looks so much like lyrics to a song with its superb repetitions and alike images. Do you write songs and poetry?

[NightzaMoondusk]

Indeed. This is originally a song I wrote, but songs are really just a type of poem so I posted it as a poem. I play guitar and sing, draw and paint, & write stories and poems.

Wow... you are quite an artistic person. It is said that the people who acquire such artistry as yourself are the ones that had been held longer in God's own hand as He created them.

[NightzaMoondusk]

I am indeed artistic I suppose, but I lack skill in just about everything else..

[Karen]

LOL... God can't grant all of us perfection in every area. ;)

Very eloquent.
Struggling to get yourself free.
Well done.
Love these lines:
"You keep a butterfly in a cage
and the butterfly is gonna die full of rage"
