Voyage, voyage

The puppet freed itself, its meandering threads transforming into a butterfly.

Silence.

Who are you butterfly?

Why are you haunting me? Are you my yearning for soaring?

Free, fragile, light, determined, solitary, resilient, beautiful and scared, I have followed your sounds.

Layer upon layer of tulle I revealed the transparency of my emotions.

Rejuvenated and enthralled, you have awakened love and desire to the brink of child bearing.

I never wanted to startle you, just be with you. You have rattled my existence. I have lived through you, and without you.

I have held you high, transforming myself into a hundred beings.

The journey was harsh, exhilarating and desired.

Such is my destiny, death a certainty.
