Swallowing everything you can keep going.
The things you hide, some times fatal.
You save every one else,
before you save your self.
If a bird has a broken wing,
you'll do what ever to help it fly again.
Someday you will have wings of your own,
something you learned to know.
Helping,listening, trying so hard not to give everything.
Over time you learn,
some peaple choose to live in the dark.
So you keep your concern.
You watch as they fall,
they are the only ones that can change their path.
You learned that one fast.
Captivated by others stories,
you try to be a hero to every body.
Spreading yourself so far apart,
in all this, youve forgotten who you are.
So now its time to take a stand.
Take the time to realize,
what you've got inside.
Look in the mirror,
figure out what your needs are.
You've earned your wings, so fly.

*hugs*
