So alone in a cage
She rolls and rolls
Into a safety net
Into a cloak
Her dream catcher
Begins to unravel
Her sheath
Her cocoon
It is not sudden
It has taken
A lifetime
Her net undone
The butterfly
Confused
Flutters
Lost from home
She no longer
Fights or spins
On a string
She opens her wings
She free falls
Blind and courageous
Caught by a warrior
Finally free
Heather Mirassou
Heather Mirassou is a poet whose work explores themes of love, sensuality, nature, and the sacred beauty of being human. Her poetry is grounded in emotional honesty and embodied experience, honoring both tenderness and desire as essential expressions of the soul.
She writes from lived moments where passion intersects with vulnerability. Memory resides in the body, and love serves as both a healing force and an act of courageous presence. Through imagery rich with nature, intimacy, and reflection, her words invite readers to feel deeply and unapologetically.
Her debut poetry collection, The Sensual Soul Poet, is available in Kindle, paperback, and audiobook at Amazon.com.
