Broken Wings Poem by Ozie James

Can't fly when I try the odds seemed stacked against my success
Have I failed after giving it all I've got or have I not givin it my best
Can't fly when i try I notice a change in my surroundings
Or is it a change in me cause when I look around Im still grounded
Can't fly but as I try the clouds begin to turn to clear sky
Giving vision and clarity to my minds eye
Can't fly but as i try doors begin to open
In places I wasn't even hoping
Can't fly but as i try I gain strength wisdom and courage
To move forward not just to get by
Can't fly but as I try work is done
The battle isn't over but the first fight is won
