Tarantella

infectious anguish
embedded
through my veins
spreaded

streamlined poison
onslaught
unbearable burden
overwrought

venomous demon
inserted
innocent, corrupt
converted

infectious truth
ignored
engulfed, exhausted
absorbed

siphoned emotion
drained
dizzy dance
restrained

rythmic spirit
illusion
keep on dancing
conclusion

twirling tarantella
so pure
upbeat anti-venom,
the cure

If this makes sense to anyone let me know...

I'm not a Butterfly, If I've Never Flown

Nourished and protected, safe external womb
In my cocoon, I will not sprout my own wings
If I don't learn to fly, here will be my tomb

Bound like a marionette, captured by strings
Under their control, these wires imprison me
Tied to these ropes, I can't experience things

I need to crack open my shell and break free
Break out of this egg, see the world on my own
Escape before there is no world left to see

I'm only a puppet, I can't stand alone
I'm not an eagle, if I stay in my nest
I'm not a butterfly, If I've never flown
