Inside the Cocoon

Post by Heartshapedbox » January 28th, 2017, 2:43 pm

Inside the Cocoon

Warm brown eyes melt me
Shapeshift. Eyes black a shark's
Beautiful mask slips
Dragon tongue scorches my heart
Pain peels off my skin
Not death, but rebirth

Sounds like an incredibly painful process. I'm curious to know how this poem came to be, what was it inspired by. Thought-provoking to say the least.

Took me a little while to think about, but gives me some sense of what metamorphosis might feel like.
