Poetry for people who could use a little kindness

Cocoon

Shaken, broken
I felt so lost
The light was fading
and so was I

I thought and planned
Determined not to quit
And, believing that I could be better,
I built myself a cocoon

I stayed inside
Growing, changing every day
Until the day I emerged
more beautiful than ever

My problems aren’t all gone
But now I have the strength to face them
And I know that when I need to
I can rest and recharge

And come back beautiful
