the cocoon unravels around me
i tear my way out, i am
a mariposa fluttering into the sky, i am
a phoenix risen from the ashes,
flames whirling,
sparks scattering, i am
reborn.
then you
spiral your way back into my life, you are
the fire that consumes
my very soul, you are
the supernova tearing
across the cosmos, you are
the meteor that
tears me apart once more.
