Original Selves

everyday when a hippo grows,
a butterfly is woven back into its
original self, but if we are woven
back into our original selves then who
would we be, because there are people
in this world who don't know themselves
and one of them is me, see in the real
world there is no turning back, and our
mistakes cannot be erased, but in this
world in my head, being woven back,
is right where i began.
