I used to let fear govern my life,
I stayed indoors out of fear of being judged,
I didn’t speak because I was terrified of being yelled at,
I wanted to go on walks but feared what people would think,
Fear kept me anchored,
Then a little bunny entered my life,
The bunny calmed me when I was stressed,
Comforted when I was scared,
Slowly all those fears started to become meaningless,
Slowly I started to become more adventurous and talkative,
I used to be a creature governed by fear,
Someone half emerged from a cocoon,
Desperately wanting to fly,
Now I have spread my wings and soar across the sky,
Fear no longer shackles me to the ground I was once trapped on,
Sometimes all we need to become butterflies is a little help from someone we love,
For me that came in the form of a bunny
