You see, we are so vastly different
You are the glorious butterfly
Already fluttering amongst your dreams

For you, the galaxy is the limit
And me, I'm still cocooned in my dark shell
Forever waiting to break free

Once, when I looked at you.
I thought, we could push through.
You & I together,
We'll make a difference forever.

But then, my smile fainted.
Remembered what you wanted.
You wanted different.
You wanted moon.
You wanted stars.
Things that I cannot be.

For I belong in the sea.
A thing you cannot be.
A thing *you wished you
wouldn't be.
