Bruised Butterfly

 

I entered this world with wings, what great travels I will find

My colors begin pale waiting for adventures to bring vibrancy

I land in different places each one a triumph of grace

My legs are getting stronger my path to open space.

Fly Butterfly fly

Some flights I climb to heights unknown, optimistic in my search

Others bring feelings not yet charted, emotions not yet embraced

I look for something familiar to overcome the fear

I travel closer to the path, to others I hold dear

Fly Butterfly fly

Colors now take on a shade to identify my kind

I’m free, I’m fierce, I have not yet learned to truly despair

My curious eyes begin to see a world that's cold yet loving

I am a sojourner with anticipation of joy both far and near

Fly Butterfly fly 

My wings are now vivacious, my determination strong

I have conquered many battles and endured many scars

I have given love and experienced it’s grasp

I have been rejected and felt lost amongst the stars

Fly Butterfly Fly

My flights have lost some power, I glide a little slower

Many travelers I once entertained have gone their separate ways

I reminisce of days gone by, the wonders that filled my heart

I pray I’ll soar until the end, grateful for all my days

Fly Butterfly fly

May the eyes of my heart always see in those first colors

A stained glass piece of art, the pure beauty of the earth

Filled with faith and trust to my God the true creator

May I end my flight as full of hope as I was at my birth

Fly Butterfly fly

Bruised Butterfly your wings still hold beauty

Your spirit rising as you soar

Your destiny to Heaven, your future held secure

Bruised Butterfly embrace Yeshua your home forever more
