Billowy wisps of white- diminish into the darkness of this night.
Up and curl away, welcoming another day.
Light dances on my fingertips, while melts away the wax-
And when the sun arises- there is no turning back.

You've lived this life before- not knowing then what was in store.
You'll try this all once more, before you close the door.
Narrow your eyes and hold your breath; be weary of the sound,
For that you hear, do not fear- your feet still touch the ground.

Initial apprehension- deflected by mysterious intrigue.
Synchronized soul- you've already begun to devour me.

Walking in circles, the clock ticking time-
Thoughts flooding through, alone in my mind.
Waves of wonder invade, spirits parade-
Leaving intricate footsteps behind.

She gasps for air, strains to break the surface-
unaware of what awaits her on the other side.

Reality.
Emerging from the cracked cacoon, her wings pinned.
She struggles to catch her breath- attempts to recollect.

"What is this?" her voice quivers.
"A new awakening," she is retaliated.
"And who are you?" she hesitates.

"Dare you ask, my friend?"
"They call me Life."
