Making Memories of Us: Forever Gone

Date written: 6/18/13

I may be alone, but I know that you are forever gone. All the good times thrown away, all the memories I carry still to this day. I will mend this broken home because I know that you are forever gone. I now must walk this path alone. I reach out hoping that it’s you, but it’s not because you are forever gone. Do you remember the times we spent together and when we weathered the unfriendly weather? All of that is now gone and I’m still left here all alone, but you will remain forever gone, gone away from this shattered home.

"Renewed"

by Daniela Morelos

 I am a caterpillar, who have already grown its wings

But still stuck, overstaying in my cocoon

Afraid to be seen, afraid to fall

 Seeing other butterflies who were once a caterpillar like me

Keeps me motivated, but terrified at the same time

 My cocoon cracks, shake, breaks

Pushing me to go out and fly

Leaving me no choice but to spread my wings

My unexpectedly beautiful wings

 Only then I realize, how good it feels

To show the world the beauty I've hidden for so long

To let go of fear and fly high

 The butterfly is me, or it can be you, or anyone of us that may also have the same struggle as me. May you have anxiety, feel awkward to the world, wanted to do something that will change and have an impact on the world but filled with fear, this is for you. We can pass at this moment. Just take little steps, love yourself even more, and do not be afraid to show who you really are. No matter how small you may think of yourself, there is something stored in you that you still haven’t realized and discovered yet, and I know, someday, you’ll shine. Just keep dreaming, and don’t let anyone or anything, especially fear, to stop you from flying up high and inspire the world. Someday, you will.
