Old Poetry....


There was a time I would pour my soul into words,

with each poem I wrote...

I expressed a piece of my heart...

I'd like to think that I'm not this woman anymore.... I'd really like to!



Metamorphic - Oct 11th 2005.

For so long you desired wings

Just a caterpillar

Many many legs

Life took you on walks

Far and wide

Finally you settle down

Cocoon yourself for several months

And you change

Your shape, your tastes, your nature, all different

You have wings… time for testing



You walk to the edge, and then shy away

No longer solid as you once were

The gentlest breeze seems to buffet you

Fazed by silent nothings

You can stare proudly at your wings

But lacking in confidence

You cannot use them

So you sit on a leaf

Pretty, capable,

But still afraid to fly!
