By Kimber Annie
The blue has begun shifting to a different hue, and all I know is to hang on for dear life
cause it’s gonna pulled me though,
and then along with it.
Out of the chrysalis into a new universe
literally breaking the boundaries of my mind.
The glassy liquid crystals once used to cocoon and grow me…
are now being outgrown.
Cracking.
Crumbling.
Unwilling to contain the force of freshly found expanding wings….
Wings that KEEP expanding
Wings that had begun soft
while slowly fluttering
now bravely un-stick themselves from being completely wrapped up
Wings that seem
to have a mind of their own
though
there was a time I vaguely recall giving them a piece of mine
It’s a faint memory now
very faint memory
because as the blue shifts to a different hue
this new hue is the color of normal.
So here I am
in between…
in between the “great break out” and my wings un-sticking themselves
I’ll just let the movement move me
then move with it
I’ll move as each new flutter undoes me
cause once the chrysalis cracks…
you can’t go back.
