The Metamorphosis
The memory was always fresh...it starts to fade a little now
The unsettled push and pull of the heart
Think of a million new days, suns, moons, and stars
It will pass
A floweret of blossoming identities to start anew
To tug and scrap, thrash and tear against the silken walls of a sheltered and vulnerable cocoon
A metamorphosis of the soul, body, and mind
Yet little by little the transformation will come to fruition
The days passed slowly and painfully
The crescent moons sat perched under the windows to my soul
Cloaking their reflections and draining them of their light
A world
Vibrant
A mind
Sat in the confined walls of a warring subconsious
Nothing was felt
Days drag their hind ends through the dirt
Nights are a quick breeze
The darkness learned to hide...
And seek
Now it learns to stay
Until it seeps from the cracks and is allowed to prowl
Lessons were learned and the healing has already begun
A mistake, is always a mistake until a lesson is learned
What remains of a hollow husk is a whisper in the wind
A memory...
...multiple
New memories…
...plentiful
