Walls It starts at the ground and reaches the stars And yet, my emotions overflow. When I start to drown, I tear them down I’m exposed to the world Letting all my pain and tears show. Crying out in the darkness for salvation Looking for sanity in the light. A hand reaches out to me But like a rose, I too have thorns. Tender words are said Tears are shed. Looking at the future Chained to the past. Pulled back to my space Picking up the pieces on the way Once again I’m feeling safe. [This message has been edited by Broken Wings (edited 03-19-2000).] |

~B.W. This was very well written, and in a way mirrors some of the pain I have experienced in life. This poem captures your feelings quite wonderfully! Amy  ~Live today as though it were your last but prepare for tomorrow as though it were here~ |

Your poem touched me and as I started to put into words what I thought I read your reply..."it's nice to know I can do something right"....That was such a painful and familiar statement...You will fly again Broken Wings...because anyone with "wings" as beautiful as yours is meant to fly...and fly HIGH!! *Angel Wing Hugs...because they are unconditional** |

Butterfly~ Thank you for your kind words and huggs....sometimes it's very hard to see the good things one does and posting my poems here and seeing the replies, even if it's only one reply, clears my skies even if it's only for a little while. take care "As you learn and grow, you will realize the greater the pain, the greater the growth." -IYANLA VANZANT |
