La Mariposa Libre

Free Write:


I want to be the Monarch Butterfly I see in front of me. That truly would be the greatest thing. I could fly in and out of the tall blades of grass; I could visit all the beautiful flowers that the world has to offer. I would be free, never to be bogged down by emotions again. Never again would a tear slide down my cheeks; the world would cry enough tears without my help. I could feel the air under my wings, making me almost weightless. My chest would be free of all these emotions. I would be free of all these people around me, constantly bringing me down. Freedom would mean being that mariposa.
