Just like the caterpillar that
turns into a butterfly,
things take time
I was upside down
building my cocoon
I covering me
So I could show you the best of me
Yet your patience
was already wearing thin
But my cocoon stage had only just begun
Nothing I did was being prolonged
nothing was overdue.
I was building me
but you didn’t quite seem
to understand the beauty of it all
But I continue to build,
I am in no rush
It takes awhile to see **** grow
It takes awhile for me to warm up to you
It takes awhile for you to be able to read me like an open book
but you gave up on me
you didn’t even try
you couldn’t quite see the beauty of it all
why can’t we just take our time?
I am worth the wait
I have so much love to give
but I’m selfish with my love
I don’t want run out of love
****
I don’t want run out of you
why are you so impatient with me?
to you I am just a caterpillar
with no potential
one who is not worth the wait
maybe this is not for us
Or maybe your eyes were not worthy enough to see me outside my cacoon
because you couldn’t quite see
the beauty of it all.
