a BEAUTIFUL butterfly

a BEAUTIFUL butterfly

I am a butterfly who sits within your neck
Sharing my beauty to awaken your cells
Certain conditions will trigger me to evolve
Won’t produce hormones that would make you feel bad.

Awakening you in the midst of the night,
Soaked with sweat and palpating heart
I can break your sleep and make you feel depressed
My presence will be felt by every part of your being.

I may rest for a while, but don’t think I have forgotten you
I am simply sitting on my throne to spread my wings as
I escort you through your journey.
Other cells will try to conquer my fortress, and cause me great harm
But still the poison persists.

Thyrotoxicosis,( hyperthyroidism ), hypothyroidism-
terms used by doctors to a disease that I cause.
You can take a thyroid pill, but you can’t focus without them
Radioactive iodine would also be a great help.

Although my wings can be clipped,
Still I am a beautiful butterfly, you can’t live without.
So you better take care of me, and maintain a proper diet.
