Mental Metamorphosis
Mental metamorphosis
Our minds: but vessels in cocoons
Your eyes: crescent moons...
I swoon for you
For me, your heart beats a familiar tune
Let’s take our time ...
I prefer later than soon
Can I remain dormant
in your coordinates ?
Im not possessive,
you’re just mine to keep.
restless…
you make me feel awake
while I’m asleep
Hesitation ran deep
Yet I was inclined..
To move forward, fast
No time to rewind
again I submitted to you, without forcefulness
May I become proportionate. . .
to your mental orifice?
Content with consent
Accepting all parts of you,
every incriment…
every crease & bend
any broken piece , I’ll need to mend.
About this poem
I believe the mind is ever changing, evolving & adapting. I have found myself accustoming to someone else’s surroundings, not for my own growth but to attempt to to help them evolve. Being selfless can sometimes lead to an unhealthy approach. You cannot free a butterfly, while you’re still in a cocoon.
