You are strong, at least stronger than a group of cumuli And breathtaking, at least more breathtaking than a beautiful sunrise after seven years spent on a basement You aren't nothing You are the air around humankind You are a bit contaminated --or a lot, doesn't matter-- but you are needed See? Here are lungs that crave you Here it is, come to me, live within me, watch me die *Do you know why they killed the caterpillars? Do you?* When exactly did you stop wishing upon a star? I remember you liked the color blue I remember you said something about your ex and the moon I remember you kept saying names that isn't mine I always wanted to be a butterfly but now I have accepted the truth I am a scattered winged moth and I still have seven days left

we are not in a hurry
You are strong, at least stronger than a group of cumuli And breathtaking, at least more breathtaking than a beautiful sunrise after seven years spent on a basement You aren't nothing You are the air around humankind You are a bit contaminated --or a lot, doesn't matter-- but you are needed See? Here are lungs that crave you Here it is, come to me, live within me, watch me die *Do you know why they killed the caterpillars? Do you?* When exactly did you stop wishing upon a star? I remember you liked the color blue I remember you said something about your ex and the moon I remember you kept saying names that isn't mine I always wanted to be a butterfly but now I have accepted the truth I am a scattered winged moth and I still have seven days left
