My Broken Wings (And The World Atop Them) Poem by Michael Fischer

The world expands on top my broken wings,
and I've grown weary from carrying it's weight.
I want to fly away and start again...but I can't;
I've invested too much time and effort into it.
If I give up today, who will carry it tomorrow? ;
For today is the key that unlocks our futures.
I don't know what's ahead on this rocky road,
but I know this...I'll soar with my broken wings.
No matter what the result; success or failure,
I will give my all to keep up with this world.
Over time, my wings will adapt and heal,
whereas a regret will last an entire lifetime!
