Broken Wings Poem by Tyra Falconwing

I’m trapped inside a box
No where to spread my wings
Feelings bottled up
That I just want to set free

So sick of even trying
When nothing becomes a result
So tried of being perfect
I just want to let it all go

I want my spirits to be lifted
I want to smile
I want to fly to touch the sky
And land gracefully again

But when I go for take off
I jump right in the air
But when it’s time for landing
I just crash straight into the ground

My wings are very fragile
They can’t carry me that high
And it’s because they’ve been stored
Inside my heart

So when I want to soar
I remember that I can’t
Cause I’m not strong enough
To land on my feet again

So when I try to fly
To follow the wind
My wings, they break
And I fall down to where I began

So now I give up
Now that my wings are broken
I’m never to fly again
I let the box win
