Shut and shunned away from you,
Dirty dark,
I wrap a cocoon hiding view,
With rags he found tossed away
Dirty dark
And still hidden from the day,
In the piles of trashy silk,
Dark dirt
Smudging skin as white as milk,
But much marred and badly stained
Wrapped in rags
Transforming in years of pain,
Yet never to emerge free;
Butterfly:
Never will he ever be.

Take care!
