Broken Wings Healed

The rain,
my souls reflection.
The drops roll down my window pane
as do the tears roll down my face
from the pain
No one knows the real me
They see an image of false security
I'm screaming for help inside my soul
but no one can hear me
My screams are muffled by this hole
in which I am standing
I feel I am drowning
and I can't swim
I look to the sky
and ask God for his hand
I pray for death
so that I can be with him
Instead my soul imprisoned
to this hell we call earth
Even at birth we cried
Isn't that something....
Even then we knew this world
would be filled with lies
That sorrow would fill our eyes
with sweet tears
And over the years
My heart has been beaten and bruised
My soul used and abandoned
My love neglected
So now I hide who I am for protection
If they don't know how badly I hurt
then they can't make it worse
My broken wings need not be healed
I'm fine being who I am
I am flawed, and imperfect but real
Though I am broken now
I will soon heal
I feel God breathe air into my lungs
What was once my fate is now undone
Free I stand......
My faith overcome.
