Chrysalism: the tranquility and peace that you feel when you're indoors during a thunderstorm.

❀❀❀❀❀

Warmth. Tap dancing across my skin. Slippery sliding through my veins. Warmth - more emotion than temperature.

Safety. Hanging in the air like smoke. Filling my lungs like oxygen. Safety - the unforgettable, perpetually craved kind.

Rain. Falling like stars, catching wishes. Rain - a mirror to the droplets of joy pooling in my eyes, running down to the upturn of my lips.

Chrysalism. How it feels to be loved by you.

Apologies,

Mr Esawey
