Chrysalis
So too it has happened to me
I have finally emerged
It has taken many years
Much punishment
Much tiresome effort, many failures
Ugly truths, beautiful lies
Scorched and earth-bound
Failure to thrive, to be alive, to contrive
To spin the golden web around me tightly
To bind the dreams to the dryad,
The prayers to the penitent
Resistance, strength, knowledge,
Belief in self-
I have done it!
Keep that net away from me!
I fly free.
