This one was inspired by my best friend our junior year. |
I finally used my new wings today And sadly you weren't there to see it I took up and off, freely flying And my wings, they felt so exquisite It was a melancholy sight All too bittersweet to behold But you couldn't say differently You haven't yet broken your mold I faced the world alone today And I admit, I was real scared This is to be my new home now Without you, I leave my soul bared But I should have known better by now My expectations of you too high You're still a growing caterpillar And I'm now a grown butterfly All you can do now is watch me You can never ask of me to stay Because we all have our own paths And because it's fate's ill way I thought I saw you today And it pained me to see your eyes You looked lost, utterly helpless But I could never hear desperate cries But we're so much different today Than we were that fateful beginning I've had to go on without you Since the real world began spinning So I'll leave now with a breeze But once, I know paths like ours cross I don't know if I'll see you again But please don't cry over the loss Because it was all in the plan My wings spread as I say good-bye You're still a growing caterpillar And I'm now a grown butterfly ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
