Open the door that nobody thought could be opened,<br /> Life is behind it,<br /> We don&#039;t have an eternity to realize our dreams, <br /> Only the time we are here,<br /> if you risk nothing....your risking everything. &hearts;

I’ve grown up in a cocoon,
I’ve developed and grown,
I’ve felt safe and secure,
But my time has come.
Now it is time to be released,
It’s my time to spread my beautiful wings,
And go into a whole new world.
A world I have never seen before,
It is my time to fly as high as I possibly can,
Were I can see the world from above.
And reach my dreams that are somewhere written in the sky.
