A word
         or two or three
                   or a thousand.

Specifically formed
         Shaped by a hand
                   Connected to a heart.

Painful...yet so soothing.

Release of an explosive emotion
         Empty the boiling, bubbling cauldron
                   Filled with tears, covered with a smile.

Released into a cocoon wrapped larva
         Transformed to exist separately
                   Yet remain a part of you...

Forever
