Metamorphosis
In the mirror of my mind,
It's becoming ever clearer;
As I reflect upon these thoughts,
Which I fought so hard to form:
My brain's a perfect storm—
When the rains comes rolling in,
The thunder and the lightning,
Are sometimes rather frightenin'.
But I will keep on fighting—
And I'm not giving in;
This storm will pass into the past,
And the sun will shine (its light) again.
From the ashes I will rise,
Like a pheonix, to the skies;
And best believe it when I say,
That I will seize the day.
I'll end this with a metaphor—
This metamorphosis must begin,
To turn this worm into a butterfly,
So I can finally fly again.

Dear NB,
To come out from the mist and deeply breathe crisp air is as therapeutic as a good day of retail therapy. It’s wonderful to read and see you. It’s a hard journey coming back to oneself, one I can really appreciate. Awesome poem. H🌷

It's a lovely poem. You speak for every person as each one passes through hard times even in thoughts, but you turn it into hope by throwing them into your past and changing the worm into a butterfly.

Such an inspiring and powerful message about perseverance in the midst of adversity. A message I very much need right now and appreciate so much. You are a magnificent butterfly and your words are always truly moving.
