The Inevitable Metamorphasis MAG
Revealing reluctance
towards severing ties from resonant pasts
Seeking redemption
from the bittersweet memories of the lasts
Mothers kisses
evolve from goodnight to goodbye
a metamorphosis
akin to that of the butterfly
while hopes
appear vividly on the surface
the qualms
lie deeply within uncovering one’s true purpose
