Cocoon

Its been a while now, can tell
Being here with my thoughts,
Have not heard the sights,sounds and smells
Locked up in this solitary confinement, this cell.

The cocoon is all around now,
Spun with its silky spell,
The cocoon is where I'm bound now,
This is where I dwell.

Hidden from the evil world,
Far away from hell,
The cocoon is where I hide now,
Far from the tolling bell.

Its been quite of a waiting,
Since those caterpillar ways,
When life was slow and steady,
Such were the good old days.

One day I'll be a butterfly,
Flying far away,
Till then I'll just be happy,
Warmly tucked today.

There is no haste to move out,
This heaven is a bliss,
Its something that gives happiness,
Something that would be missed.

The cocoon is where dreams are made,
And then left here to rest,
Let me be here for some more time,
Lay cradled in the nest.
