Wings
I cannot bear this pain
I no longer feel sane
Blood flows through my hand
Nobody seems to understand
This feathered fate lifts me
Into the air all will see
The words I say will crumble
My life from the sky will tumble
I cry inside my hate
It certainly must be too late
I can never be saved
These words my life has engraved
The condition of my soul will taint
Such an ugly picture I paint
Hope has been lost to me
Eras of time won't set me free
From the prison of my mind
Desperation has made me blind
Deep inside I feel such shame
Upon myself I place the blame
Death and life hang together
On the weight of a single feather
My thoughts rage in pain
I write to nothing in vain
Shadows cloak me as the night
Black and grief with fear to fight
Tears come and cloud my eyes
My heart inside wilts and dies
Without a friend I sigh and groan
Knowing I will forever be alone
Few know the pain of rape
From your mind there's no escape
I let my body truly be
So speak that I may feel free
I cannot bear the pain today
Let these fragile wings take me away.
