Butterflies and Bikinis

Butterflies and Bikinis That is the path of my unfolding Opening myself to the Summer To things that are warm and new Opening myself to the possibility of of knowing someone like you. Opening myself to all possibilities To the warmth of the Noon day sun Opening myself to the evening hours To when love's music could be sung. Opening myself to the possibiltiies of knowing someone like you To the chance that you'll either make me smile Or that you will ultimately make me blue. Butterflies and Bikinis That is the path of my unfolding. Like a metamorphosis It is the most ultimate of life's caress It can be life's most amazing event It can be the pinnacle of all of your success. It is the changing of the seasons It is the shedding of your Winter clothes It is the unveiling of one's inner self It is being willing to be completely exposed. It is the showing of one's true colors Both from the outside and from within It is the vulnerabiltiy that most often comes From being willing to shed one's most protective skins. Butterflies and Bikinis That is the path of my unfolding. I am willing to show myself I am will to metamorphosize from within I am willing to expose myself I am willing to let you see beneath my outer skin.
