Description
One of those days, in the pastI dozed in my maze
The world outside
No longer in my dreams
From my icy window
I saw a world
A world of filth, and betrayal
Then I smiled,
O, such beautiful creation
This cocoon of mine
Weaven from sould and blood
It stood strong
Pure as ice
Strong as steel
It stood against all foulness
And perfect it remained
A flicker from the outside
A voice in my mind
--Greeting, cocoon
Floating outside, there it was
Such fragile creature
with the spirit of wind
Wings of fog
Colour of mist
A creature with such beauty
that I stirred
--Come in, my little friend
and take refuge
The wings flickered
Scatter light in a world of darkness
--Have you forgotten
The taste of sunshine
The smile of the flowers
The music of the trees?
Like a ray of life
It found my soul
So deeply wrapped in itself
It had forgotten,
What it was like.
--Come with me
It chimed with joy
With each word, my barrier weakened
Then
With the force of a lightening
It shattered my precious,
precious cocoon
I fell
Through the hold it created
Panic seized me
As I fell through my protection
Every nerve shrieked pain
Fear filled my blood vein
I had forgotten
in the moment of temptation
The cocoon was weavened
with my soul
Then the fall stopped
Dangled from the brink of my broken castle
I was alone
Every desire and fear feasted
on my delicate body
Every hungry pair of eyes
Lingered on my blood
--Let go, I'm your salvation
Full of innocence
It crooned
--Beyond the pain, there's paradise
Longing and hoping
I let my fingers slip
Then, I heard
--WELCOME
The wraith cackled
With all my might
I grabbed on
--NOOO
With such urgency the wings flapped
With such despair it cried
But my heart was made up
No more
No more
summoned my last strength
I braided my soul and blood
My beauriful cocoon
Don't worry
I will fix ya
This time you will be stronger
Burying all the hope and dream
They shall no longer interfer
No more
No more
I will stay in my maze
and ask for no more
No matter how beautiful
the paradise may be
I ask for no more
Let me be
Let me be...

You do realize that in the cacoon you dissolve... and you are reformed to become something better... a moth, a butterfly, a better you... or maybe a new creature... To go into a cacoon means to come out as something better... I know what it is like to have someone to enter into your world and have that person ruin it... But then why must we share our thoughts and our feelings... because if we don't then we blow up... but if we do we get contamnidate... the contradictions of life... the destruction of life... For those who hand on to life lose it and those who give up life gain it... another contadiction of life... may you be reborn as a new creation and enter into a world better then before.
