The colors of our wings intertwine

Blue and black
Red and black
Colors of different meaning
Stability
Adventure
Power
Create purple,
Peace.

We learn to grow from a caterpillar trapped on the ground
Vulnerable to the extremes of the world
We help each other survive and grow until nature takes over.

We develop on our own
The memory of each other suppressed to our subconscious,
We take the lessons and apply it to our life.

As we break through our shell we’re able to grow from the problems we had before
We’re free to travel where we please with the gift of wings
Eventually we’ll cross paths again free.

This piece is a venting piece that I went through late at night to clear my mind.
