My body my soul faded into
What everyone wanted me to be
Life got hard I became distracted
So I forgot about me...
I faded into the background
Left dusty and forgotten
Erased memories and time
Nothing remained
but this vessel who liked to rhyme
Slowly and surely
A metamorphosis begun
I laid out all my fears and
took them on one by one
I bereaved that lost part of me
Waves washed away the doubt to sea
Tore down the jaded gates
Knocked down the shackled walls
*I emerged from my cocoon
This reinvigorated butterfly*
~
No more walls need built
In this new becoming of I
