    The Cocoon Phase

    I wrote this poem back in March, but it’s come back to life now. With a nod to Dr. Nicole LePera, the holistic psychologist.

    The Coccoon Phase

    A time where I hold back
    To dissapear from the world
    Figuring out who I am

    As the strands wrap around me
    There’s no space left
    For worries, doubts or fears
    All I see is the cocoons interior

    Inside…
    It’s all white & empty

    Full of blank space
    Separated from all that’s been

    As I sit within the silence
    Planning my metamorphosis
    Wings of inner strength form

    Given time…
    I will emerge frozm the cocoon

    To fly high in the sky

    • Beautifully said. Life has many stages and I can see why many people enter the cocoon phase. I myself have entered this phase many times. Every time you reemerge from this phase you become stronger and more beautiful than before.

    • I love this … it’s like you are giving yourself a blank slate to emerge into the next phase of your life… a launching pad to experience the greatness you have to offer the world! Love it! <3 Lauren

    • beautiful, a view from the cocoon, a place we tend to overlook in rush towards wings. Lucky for us, we can return and rebuild them to fly in a new way.
