Home.

You can be Heaven.

Or you can be Hell.

You're a paradox.

A paradox that not many notice.

Waiting for someone to acknowledge you.


You can fly like a monarch butterfly,

But sting like a giant hornet.

Stings that will always leave a mark.

You’re always changing,

not for the better, not for the worst.


You’re like a name.

You were given to me, 

And you’ll be taken from me.

But I didn't ask for you.

And now, you’ll follow me,

Till Death.
