A wounded Bird

A wounded bird

For only with you I realise my true capability

I spread my wings and wince as the pain spreads through my body

Desperate to fly and find myself in the midst of this fcuked up world

I try again, but this time not in the hope of flying away

No! In the hope that I will again feel the pain, as pain is all I know

Everyone says it isn't over until the fat lady sings 

Everything in me was sure it is me they speak of

I sang till my lungs hurt, in desperate need for it all to end

But no! The dark days would not end

Misery had me clasped within its grasp 

Reminding me with every feather just why I couldnt fly

This time I wanted to fly

To seek, to Escape, to Find

And as hope seeped into my heart

God grasped this one moment of light

Took me by the wing and said "FLY"

For in that very last 10th finger was a lie

I was lied to by everyone who made me feel less then I was

Everyone who vowed i would never succeed

Everyone who mocked, threw stones and laughed

For it is finding a moment of hope that he let me fly straight into the arms..

The arms in which I truly belonged,, 

Yours

For he shall never forsake a wounded bird..

                                                 I call this piece A wounded bird..
