Mama said I have potential. So Im off to a new place, But I love this sheltered cocoon of mine, Even though its proved to be at times a disgrace, But there is one caterpillar, In this cocoon of mine, Whom I adore very much, And wish to be with all the time, But I must move on, And join the butterflies in the air, Metamorphosis has called upon me, Yet my caterpillar has all my cares, Im sorry for growing wings before you, Or for sprouting further than you can go, I wish you all things peaceful, Mama said I have to go.
Outgrowing old places, and wanting to stay with those you love.
