Metamorphosis

The vulnerable
caterpillar an
innocent love
that we give.

It grows whilst
it's nurtured
and given a
reason to live.

A chrysalis
of emotions
hanging on a
fine silk thread.

Barriers are
tested, as our
defences we
learn to shed.

A metamorphosis
takes place,
we're unable
to retreat.

Us, a beautiful
butterfly emerges,
we are now
complete.

Growing Hope

Field of flowers, hope so bright, Just the one I need. Set me free, launch my flight, Plant my new grown seed. Round I wander, picking stems, Grow my mind just right.

Fear Of The Storm

Fear of the storm Letting go of your fears is like a thunder storm from beginning to end. It's nice outside, But something is brewing within. The sky becomes clouded with darkness.

Bubble

I lived life in a bubble,. Kept safe from all trouble,. It was better, safe, easy,. Made life seem sunny and breezy,. But it was all an illusion,. A bubble-lensed delusion,.

Empty

I have an empty bottle. It's here in my hand. I'm going to the beach. To fill it up with sand. I have an empty tub. I'll fit it up with dirt. Finding garden worms. So they won't get hurt.

A Moment In Time

That one single moment. When everything clicks into place. When you suddenly can't remember why those tears were rolling down your face. That one single moment. When life feels turned around.

Changing Tides (I Need You)

Waiting. But I think time is standing still. I'm dreaming. Yet I seem to wake up unfulfilled. I fear the unknown. But can't wait till it's shown. Should I take those first steps.

You Are You

I wish I was a butterfly. To be able to flow with the wind , reach new heights, discover the world, even if it is meaning to be totally alone.
