Butterfly in a Cocoon

Folder: 
Personal (Hope)

I am opening up.

Once a caterpillar
acquainted with dirt.

Now my wings unfold
and beauty is unfurled
for the world to witness
what was waiting to develop.

I am set free.

I spread my arms
and am filled with hope.

Now I can fly away
into everything
I dreamed was possible
even when I crawled the earth.
