My cocoon has come
If you only knew the things
that been going on
You see God has me both in the eye of the storm
and cradled in his arms
Nights have been restless and long
Trying to find a place to belong
I haven't written in a lil bit
Right now, I tell you I am the poem
I am the song
I am living the words
Today my pen is asleep
Sowing is my sacrifice
Infinite stories I will reap
In your eager window
Just let my rain seep
Calm your soul and just
Let yourself fall into the deep
Dreams sometimes seem
Better than reality
Now that's a fact
That vivid one that you know of
I wish I could go back
Stay a lil while longer
Let that passion grow stronger
Just having a glimpse into that portal
Was such a honor
Because I have to fight demons on the daily
My relationship is failing
Instead of healing me it ails me
I want to sail into the pacific sunset
Revert back to that exploring child
B-more in the rear view, behind me 3000 miles
Through these trials I become better
My obstacles becomes my treasure
I'm about to receive an abundance
By this world cannot be measured
Just by keeping it together
Learning to be wise and discern
Don't pull me out my furnace mother
Let your child burn
My cocoon time has come
I can no longer hide or run
The birth of a new being has begun
The work in progress is far from done
The sun is a little further, in this cold summer
The son has brought me closer, grace's blanket I'm under
Translucent walls made of web has encased this man
Predators can't breach this home, gestating is his plan
I'm becoming an evolved version of what I used to be
These financial chains can no longer hold me
They turned off my electric
But even in darkness I am free
I see everything in the devoid of light
With the pupils of a owl I write
Even in my own plight
Poetry, I'm here for you, so it will be alright.
