Broken Glass Wings

It is so much harder than I thought Crossing bridges never been crossed Walking paths never been walked Holding onto rails never been held Seeking life with broken glass wings I dined to shelter my heart's frozen rings I pulled one's dreams, pulling my own strings Hearing a silent leaf’s song sings But I begged not and I cared not A secret choice all for naught Emptying a glass so fraught I caged joys to bottom rot And a desire I pledge to not know When can my broken glass wings glow To let it be or to let it go I sought no answers, but to let it all flow
