Wings are made to fly To prevent falling Wings are made to soar To make everything seems taller
Wings are white They are pure They are beautiful Then why arenβt mine?
My wings are broken The feathers; an inky black The bone snapped Mine arenβt beautiful
When I try to fly I fall When I try to soar I plunge
I never saw them as beautiful I never saw them as useful I never saw them as a part of me Then I met you
You told me they were beautiful You helped me fix the broken bones You helped me embrace my black feathers You helped me learn to fly You helped me learn to soar You helped me
Then you left me You left me
You built me up Only to collapse You taught me to fly Only to fall even harder
You used me You used me
I thought I thought you were different I thought you were right I thought you would be there
Wings are made to fly Wings are white Wings are pure Wings are strong Wings are beautiful
But what if they are not? Are they still wings?
I wrote is about a week ago. This is the first poem I am publishing to this website.
