A caged heart,
rebelling, yelling
begging for release
as it flutters rapidly,
beating at the walls
that keep it confined,
emotions locked inside,
until the cage
gives way
and a thunderstorm
of butterflies
fly free

Hi, my name is Ashley
I am a former Inmate Substance Abuse Counselor who now moves between consulting, book editing, and computer support. I still enjoy research, and you’ll often find me alternating between reading poetry books and psychological studies.
