Thank you for giving me the wings
The weights on the shoulders walking day in and out,
can't seem to shake it off, seems like I am going to drown.
I have been walking day and night and day again
been through scorching sun and perpetual rain.
A ray of light, bright but enough to burn,
you show me way, yet I am scared, I run.
For you are my light, and you are my weakness,
a pain in heart and the answer to my sickness
I will drown with the heaviness, I cave
I have nothing to loose but me, why am I to save?
Yet you come, to the abyss and set me free,
free from my demons, you are the root to my tree
A lot is unsaid between us, banal conversation of things.
Answering the unasked questions, you give me the wings.
For I no longer cage my heart or be be part of herd,
thank you for setting me free as a bird
