I am becoming free

I am a flower in a pot too small needing to be replanted in a larger pot.
I am a butterfly coming out of a cocoon.
I am a bird spreading my wings and learning how to fly.
I am a person once trapped by my past, learning to let things go.
With each chip away at the stone weighing me down I am becoming free.
I am an individual, a person, someone learning about themself and discovering themself.
One who is happy to have some space from family to be able to figure out what I really want in life. And my next big step might be a cross country move away from the Southwest:) to somewhere back East such as Maryland, Virginia, upstate New York or Ohio. Life is looking better and for the first time in years I do not feel numb at the moment.
