Maybe it was the brightness. Maybe it was the way it moved when she talked. Or maybe it was the way she wore it held back all the time - but I digress. There is more to this girl than just her hair. Maybe it was the fact that she always managed to find a way to smile without her lips ever budging, how she'd make me smile without her even watching, or how whenever we'd part ways she would do that little, like a hop-skip but only done with the toes. You know what I mean? Everything about her was so inviting, so entrancing. I was enthralled by her very being. 
 
 Something about her caused this- this change inside me. I do n't know what it was, but it was as if her mere existence caused me to wake up in the morning invigorated. I would wake to breathing stale air, step outside into the bog of life and systematically trudge my way through work and the day before coming home and washing the newest layer of rust from my skin. But it turns out, no really - it turns out there was all a purpose for this. There was a reason for me to build this chrysalis I had trapped myself in. I had indulged so much in the younger, what we could call caterpillar stage of my life, that I had this coming. Caterpillars, after all, are mindless monsters that only consume, leaving a wake of destruction in their path. I caused this life, and I was to be punished for it. I was alone for so long that my visage became that of stone, and remained that way for so long that the petrified face the world saw also became one that was petrified of the world. 
 
 But then I met her. She is what sparked this change, this metamorphosis. This new beginning. A second chance. All of my transgressions would be shattered and erased as I finally break free from this self-made tomb, spread my wings and reach towards the world. The best part is, even if she does n't feel the same way, even if she does n't see in me what I see in her, all I care about is that I have her in my life. I can feel it already, my skin crawls with life as I find myself become reinvigorated. The cracks in the stone widen and so do my lips, reaching upwards along with my spirit. She has sprung me from my cage without even knowing it, and even if it takes my whole life I will repay her for that. 
 
 Her arms were around me now, as we lay in her bed. They we're wrapped tight around me, keeping me close. This feeling? This change? It was all meant for me. I was meant to be hers. She chose me, after all. The poison she put in me that first had be in my system for so long that the attraction I had was undeniable. Now I see that I was not the only monster, that there are things in this world that exist to keep it running the way it is. I feel her other six arms wrap around the rest of me now, holding me steady as she wraps me in her cocoon. I was so naive to think that just because she released me from my prison did n't mean she could n't put me in another. She holds me carefully, almost lovingly, as she weaves the web up my body. Trapped again. A new cocoon, and new metamorphosis she would help me with. My last.
