Broken

The stars are beautiful

The moon shines bright

The wind is calm

And the earth is dry

The air is of silence

The cliff is so high

My mind is unclear

I’m so confused still

My heart, skipping beats

My breathing, wild and hefty

The wind starts to blow

Take me now, I am ready

I close my eyes

I can now hear the sound

Dreams flash in mind

As thunder shakes the ground

Eyes open, body quivering now

The lightning strikes bright

The clouds are angry

The rain is light

The wind has turned heavy

The sky, dark and gloomy

As I look down

I see no end

Darkness fills the way

The moonlight has faded

My wings, so worn

My eyes, full of pain

My hands keep shaking

My legs, weak, it’s hard to stand

I close my eyes, one last time

Spread my worn, broken wings

Stepping off the edge whispering goodbye

Too broken, too hurt, to fly
