Breaking Away From All the Chains

Breaking away from all the chains

Written By Dean Masciarelli

Tuesday, September 7, 2010



Breaking away from all the chains 
that have kept us from discovering  
ourselves is truly a reawakening

And just like the 
caterpillar
and the cocoon 

We also fight for change and that’s when 
we begin to go through our own 
unique individualized transformation


Because we are finally willing to
break free because of the offerings 
that were bestowed upon us to give us
the freedom to break out of our old skin

So that we can have the freedom to roam 
just like the butterfly that fought 
endlessly to break out of its own cocoon 

Because we had the willingness and 
the determination to fight for change
