When your heart is broken all you want is to get away from everyone and cry.Grow a pair of wings and fly as far away as you can untill you are feeling better.Then you come back to the world of the living and be your normal self again.Such is the cycle of love ,life and learning as you grow from a child to an adult.

j

On broken wings I fly high above the blue skies,

my broken wings mingle with the floating clouds.

Flying where no man,beast or heartache finds me,

letting the cool gentle breezes go on auto pilot.

****

The cold wet tears I cry is my fuel for my flying,

the cool winds dry them before they become rain.

Dark blue eyes now feel sorrow instead of love,

my broken wings doesn’t want to lose my only love.

****

Higher and higher I fly as the cool winds pick up,

taking me gently towards the bright shining sun.

I feel the suns intense heat but still keeps on flying,

my heart is numb so I don’t feel the suns hot heat.

****

But as I come down  I am burned but better now,

my long  overdue tears become a very gentle rain.

They water the forest ,flowers and the earth below,

dark blue eyes finally cry out what has been hidden.

****

But I know now that my only love is no longer mine,

he has given his heart to another and is forever lost.

Though it hurts me I know that I cant get him back,

he made his choice and I have to get on with my life. 

****

So though I still love him and cherish our memories,

I put on a very bright smile and lose my broken wings.

But my heart and head wont forget him or our love,

the time to start the final stage of healing has begun.

****

Someday I know that my broken wings will be fixed,

but that still wont make me as whole as I once was.

His presence and love for me touched me in every way,

no matter what happens I will never ever forget this.

****

Broken wings don’t stay broken forever we all are aware,

they are only this way when we lose who we deeply love.

But its been said that if love doesnt  kill us we will be ok,

it only makes us all stronger for the next round of life and love.

    A beautiful and yet saddening piece which I’m sure many of
    us past or present can relate to. Perhaps in writing this piece
    you are well on your way to healing….
