Something is bothering me today
I don't know what it is
Im edgy
I'm moody
I'm not myself
I hate days like today
when nothing can be explained
I hide away from the world
just want to be alone
I built my own cocoon
to protect myself
Then wait impatiently
to turn into a butterfly
and coexist with myself.

I've lived in that very same cocoon, and believe me, it's stifling!

Hatch out and spead your wings. There is a bright sun in the sky and mile upon mile of flowers smiling at you. You won't have time to worry about things. Life's work will keep you busy. Great poem.

Throw your heart out in front of you
And run out to catch it.
