Metamorphosis

[ˌmedəˈmôrfəsəs]

Noun

1. the cracking sound of you breaking out of the shell that once held you captive; breaking the barriers of the traps laid in place to keep your beautiful wings from taking flight.

2. moments of realization that you are indeed the sun. You are the center of your own world.

3. freedom of shedding the skins that weighs you down.

4. the pain of growing up and knowing people only liked the idea of what you might be and not who you really were.

5. realizing that moths are beautiful creatures too and that the way they fly is the same pattern your heart beats.

6. It is finding out that the things you love most, hurt the most to love. Self love being the greatest villain in the story of your cocooned little life.

7. that beautiful burn of the light as it ensnares your little moth eyes and you begin to realize… you are trapped once again.

8. you have reached the end of your flight and now you truly will shine like the sun.
