The Catapillar and I
The catapillar and I shared an impossible dream.
We where bored of a life so mundane and routine.
It was time to say goodbye to our redundant fears.
It was time to let go of memories of drabier years.
No more patience was left for drying crocodile tears.
We did not need anyone's validation to begin our transformation.
We took a peak inside to learn ourselves from within. What we discovered was our beauty goes deeper what's seen on our skin.
We began to believe in ourselves, and then a miracle happened.
While sealed safe inside our safe self healing cocoon we discovered how bright our true colors could shine.
They where there all along, we just needed reminded. We needed some time.
Dreams do come true, just ask the catapillar and I.
We reemerge into the world and take to the sky with the beauty and grace of a butterfly.
