Mend My Broken Wings - Poem by Star Blossom Williams

The gates are so cold
I dont feel any wind
The ground is so soft
I just wana' check in
Two big, buff guys
Guard for security
Wearing nothing but a white suit
A tie, like a committee
They dont smile
Nor shrug or sigh
Their just standing there
Could it be that their in denial?
I take a few steps forward
And try to open the gate
The guard tells me no
And says, its much too late
I dont understand
He told me myself
He said he'd let me back in
If I went and got some help

I ask for your forgiveness
For I have sinned
I bare so much memories
I belong with you up here
I stumbled
And fractured some bones
Please mend my broken wings
My mistakes was a humans hole

I take a few steps back
I take a deep breath
My heart begins to race
Like theres war in my chest
I can barely breathe
My head hurts so much
Feels like Ive been on a 10 mile run
Everything gets dim
I dont hear a sound
I close my eyes real tightly
And push the negativity out
Suddenly I feel a rush of air
I see a big bright light
And the beams pass through my hair
Gently I land on the ground
People keep on walking
Its like I didnt make a sound

I ask for your forgiveness
For I have sinned
I bare so much memories
I belong with you up here
I stumbled
And fractured some bones
Please mend my broken wings
My mistakes was a humans hole

I saw a vision, of who I was
Twenty three years ago
This gate is still cold
I still dont feel any wind
He threw me the key
And told me to come right in
I cryed so hard
I couldnt feel my eyes
My smile was so big
You woulda' thought I was high
I found exactly
What Ive been looking for
I know what I had to do
I couldnt wish for anything more

I asked for your forgiveness
As I had sinned
I bared so much memories
I belonged with you up here
I stumbled
And fratured some bones
You mended my broken wings
Now I wont have to fly alone
