Flower Moon

The one that scares fear itself.


I get goosebumps when I feel him within me.
So strong and dominant.
Seeping with power.

He wants out.
He wants to play.
And I don’t think I can hold him in any longer.

It’s been a few years now…
Since I finally saw him.
Since the cage opened and the chains started to break.

But I’ve been afraid, still…
To let him roam free.
Completely.

He’s the rebel.
The “bad boy”.
He’s done.

My fear just isn’t strong enough anymore.
He cannot be contained.
He will not bow.

And, oh…
I feel the glory.
Not the one most know.

Beyond the walls of the man-made world.
Between light and dark.
Emerging.

The alpha.
One who does not want to lead.
But you’ll want to follow.

The predator.
One who does not need to hunt.
But you’ll want him to.

And yet, it doesn’t matter…
He wants not your approval.
Or your permission.

Nobody.
Just me.
As we finally merge…

Burying deep the remnants of the past.
Hungry for more.
For freedom.

I’m letting him off.
This is the only way.
I transform within.
