This one about my butterfly is a project in 2010 I think, but it really helped me and other girls, and still it helps people... It uses the concept of the butterfly effect. 

I thought I had found someone that would really help, whilst it did help, it didn't help for long enough...

I have a butterfly,

A butterfly of my own that sits there in ink on my arm.

That moves from day to day, but only fades away naturally.

There's no scrubbing it off, 

There's no 'killing' it.

I have to stay strong to keep it alive because once I cave in the butterfly gets killed,

And I'm the one to have killed it.

There's a butterfly with me, for now anyway.

More than one occasionally and sometimes they're name after people I know deep down do care and love me,

My butterfly stays on my arm,

There in ink happily staying there without being killed or scrubbed, but to fade on its own.
