Amongst rags a dove with a broken wing has nestled
Laying in a painful way
The dove has been left for dead
Its heart no longer beats, love has fallen
This angelic creature just stares at the feet that walk over it
Hope has left this beauty, and pain presses against her mind
Innocence stolen, but not gone
Unseen beauty buried deep with in
Her wings attached to her soul
Words no longer slip out of her mouth
It has just become pain filled sobs
Her hearing has intensified and words of hurt are heard clearer
How can the world just pass her by?
A fellow heart in need
I would help her if I could
But what could I do
Seeing as how I am just another dove with broken wings

Tomorrow comes for those who fear it.
Today never ends for those who live it.

I can really relate to this.

"The dove has been left for dead
Its heart no longer beats, love has fallen"

Great write.

I want to wrap my own "wings" around you both and send you lots of love. I really felt the sad lonliness of the poem.

Loving, healing hugs,

Thank You Midnite, though I wish it were that simple.
Thank You jennirey, I am sadden that this does relate to you, but hopefully it will pass.
Thank You Earth Angel, as well for those kind words that you did utter.

Doves are resilient in their destiny...broken wings take care...and the most wonderful healing can occur.  Sometimes duet is the best medicine.
