Broken Wing

There once was a time when I could fly

When my heart used to sing

Now I am feeling empty

Alone with a broken wing

So many hopes and desires have I achieved

Only to be let down, shattered and deceived

Who was the creature standing before me?

How long had I been blind?

Wise people always know what is happening

But for fools it takes time.

Now I am thinking of my future

Hoping for the pain to disappear

Until then songs of sadness I will sing

Wallowing in self pity as I mend my broken wing
