I am a caterpillar
an ashen powder surrounds my soul
trapped in a cocoon
having no goal
An emptiness
fills by being
a life without purpose
not worth seeing
Now in the hands
of one filled with light
bringing me into the sunshine
filled with delight
Transformed into a butterfly
sweet nectar calling my name
flittering from flower to flower
life is now a game
There are trees
bright colors filled with life
moving with the bees
the rhythm is nice
A meadow filled with flowers
each with a different scent
guided with the breeze
feeling content
Night comes
life beginning to fade
an angel appears
taking me to the next escapade
Now reborn
a caterpillar with a new route
soon to emerge
my soul no longer hiding out
