Metamorphosis


What person has not gone through change

As we are young we do not believe what we need to here

Our mind, body, and spirit becomes rearranged

We are the present, god the seer

I do not know what the future behold

What is love, what is life, what are the answers

My story and future not finished therefore yet untold

So the answers I want is unanswered

As I start from the beginning

I am the bud in the ravaged forest

And once I finish my digging

I am the blooming plant that cleans the ravaged forest

The blooming plant ages, get older, and wiser

Then its leaves fall off pass away and provides nutrition to the soil

The nutrition is knowledge...

Knowledge that will provide the wisdom for the new blooms.
