Analysis of Beautiful Butterfly!
As the rain falls from the sky,
I start my journey into flight,
My wings are spread, with colors of a rainbow, so beautiful and bright,
The wind beneath them, I glide though the air, free as a bird,strong as the sea,
The rain begins to weigh me down,
My wings get wet,
Fear begins to hit me, scared of what is happening,
Will I be strong enough to make it down safely,
Will I show everyone that I am strong, and that I can do anything that I
dream of,
Or will it be all gone,
Like a flash of lighting stunning the earth,
Once second noticed,
The next it is all gone,
A memory that is forgotten,
A soul lost without love,
What happened to the beauty of my wings,
The power I felt as the wind was beneath my wings,
I thought nothing could bring me down,
Turns out she has too much power,
I was doing this for her,
I wanted her to be proud,
Trying to land safely, But there is too much power over me,
I land,
My wing is broken,
I can't move,
I am scared,
I failed at what I wanted to achive,
I need help,
Need to be fixed,
My colors are not bright anymore,
My feelings are not taken into heart,
I am fragile, and can't take the pain anymore,
I am giving up, feeling wrothless now,
Someone has walked all over me and I am ashamed at who I am,
Hoping someone will walk by and be able to fix me,
I look up and see a gental soul approuching me,
They place me in there arms as they look over my broken wing,
They tell me I am strong and powerful and can do anything that I put my mind to,
She places out the palm of her hand,
As I sit there impatiantly,
I start to flapmy flap my wings,
I start to feel powerful,
I give it my all and start to fly,
With the wind beneath my wings again,
I have now restarted my journay into flight,
Feeling so beautiful and bright.
