Heal My Tattered Wings Poem by Vision Ghost

Want to find the strength again to carry on
Alone and away from affection as I am one
Who cannot see, the forest for all the trees
Sucking in the sea and summer time breeze

Always wondering where, what if and why?
Senses so dulled no matter how much I cry
Releasing all the pain so dealt deep inside
That my heart blown apart and opened wide

Grasping every reed to haul me to the top
Bleeding hand grips as this just wont stop
Can’t return to a different place as I’m here
Finding in myself some shelter from my fear

I looked toward the lightness of this future
And saw the way through though I’m unsure
Of how to commit to the pathways so dark
Unseeing for the fortune of a human spark

Can’t imagine myself as anything different
Though everything has changed to prevent
Any sense of normality from what once was
That I look now to a different fulfilling cause

To fathom a way forward and rid me of pain
Heal my tattered wings so I may flay again
Toward the sun the moon and the bright star
Outshine the past and soothe my every scar

To stand again unaided and hold myself high
And only for the joy of breathing to pass by
That I am the strength in itself so to survive
Even the mountains breathe for me to revive

Tears absorbed as now my whole heart sings
Found the strength to heal my tattered wings
