Do you want to catch me
and confine me
within the boundaries
of your glass jar?
I am a butterfly,
darling, I will fly,
far above in the sky
and reach for the stars.
Do not chase me,
I warn you.
It is a futile activity
that you would do
to wear out your body.
If you really want to know
where is it that I want to go,
just quietly accompany
me on my journey.
Be ready for adventure
as we travel on this venture.
Be ready to follow and not to run
away, getting afraid of twists and turns.
I will go wherever, whenever I please,
wherever I feel at rest, peace and ease.
Like a free spirit, I will jump over the obstacles
to explore the nature’s miracles.
