With A Broken Wing.... Poem by Lesa MRK

A broken wing, a broken dream;
My heart can't understand.
The price of love becomes too much,
For tears are grains of sand.

A lost child, my lost hope;
All is lost in what couldn't be.
I pray for peace that's been taken-
A walk beside the sea.

A dark night, a dark life;
I reach out for the sun.
But morning cannot find me - I am left behind,
When all the tears are done.

These wings are broken, this heart is bleak;
The light of the world, I hope to seek,
My child is lost, but love lives on...
In the light of the world, I wish to belong.
