Chrysalis

Imagine being treated like
A worm
You spend your day
Crawling
From leaf to leaf
Looking
For the stuff you need
To survive
What do you know, after all
You're just
A worm
You are so seemingly simple
A creature
But you know that inside
You're not
When the change does come
It is sudden
You disappear into
A cocoon
For days, perhaps
Weeks even
But you emerge
And become what you truly are
All it took
Was for the right thing
The right circumstance
To come along
You are now no longer a lowly worm
You are now a creature
Of the sky...
