Do you see that baby bird who walks?
because she has forgotten she has wings,
the bud that tries to blossom but cannot,
or the caterpillar who struggles hard to break free from her cocoon.

It is a part of the universe’s plan :
To confine them in a cage stronger than their strength,
To push or perish,
To struggle and survive,
To turn into the magnificient being they are born to be

— a bird, a flower and a butterfly.

Resistance Poetry

A lover of flowers, icecream and books, I write when getting out of the bed in the mornings and falling asleep at night becomes equally tough.
