Thoughts rise persistently
I’m plagued with distanced destiny
Words form in black and white
To fill the page, expand our sight
Now find your place
My ears are burning
Can’t spend forever in the clouds
Again
There is no purpose
Neglecting what has been endowed
Wings meant to fly
Crumble in the winds
And paralyze
I fall in circles
Spinning out with only
Lifeless eyes
Withstanding all our grief
A whispered voice that screams belief
Guiding your flower’s bloom
Is how you’ll be remembered true
Dismiss, provoke
It gets you nowhere
Simple child it knocks you to the ground
For once
Won’t you breathe clean air
Waves you make will crush you till you drown
Wings meant to fly
Crumble in the winds
And paralyze
I fall in circles
Spinning out with only
Lifeless eyes
Crystal skies
Seen through tyrant eyes
A father’s caustic hand
Feeding into blind command
Nothing to sculpt who we are
Sew up our broken hears
Grieving
Worthless the pen in my hand
With no one who understands
My world
(Cassandra you’ve fought me hard
Only yourself in mind
So heed my words
This story may not end in kind)
Wings meant to fly
Crumble in the winds
And paralyze
I fall in circles
Spinning out with only
Lifeless eyes
