Angel Wings

My wings have been clipped not by God but by myself

It is time for me to fly and find my value outside the wealth

A angelic being trapped in human flesh

This world, this life, nothing more than a mortal mess

They see the gold and glitter dusted across this porcelian face

but do they see the pain that cannot hide, for my heart is more sheer than the finest lace

Watch in awe as I glide and fly high above the clouds horizon

do you even see all the things that the tiny lies hide in

Is it really worth it, to feel the wind upon my cheek

Is it really worth it to never find and always seek

All for the title of an angel living in this human existance

I can no longer fight, I am loosing all resistance

Its time to jump and never look away

Do not try to change me or get my decison to sway

Perhaps I was meant to be an angel but that is not what I am choosing

Maybe it is time to toughen up and start getting used to loosing

So look at me once more, this glorious angelic being

For when tomorrow morning comes, no longer is it you will be seeing

When the sun rises in the baby blue skies

You will see all my sorrows and I will see all the lies

There will be no more pretending to be what I cannot

This thing called love, it seems to be what I long forgot

Take these vibrant colors from my soul and all my being

open my eyes and show me all that I have not been seeing

I know it may not be all beautiful and glistening bright

I know I will now be held responsible for all the wrong and all the right

Sometimes even the most beautiful will have their days

craving to find an answer among others tangled ways

Goodbye wings, goodbye flying, goodbye gold and glitter

It has been a beautiful spring but now it is time to face the bitter winter

Do not wish me luck, do not wish me happiness, do not say a thing

Just take these to another hopeful little girl, who could use a new wing
