An angel struggles to take flight, But she can barely get off the ground... Wings made of paper Weren't meant to fly very far. Her heart tells her she was born to fly But yet reality screams that she wasn't. She cries in anguish As the rainfall desintegrates Her freshly made wings, Now how is she to escape The fires that burn too close? Is she imagining them Or did she create them? No, they were there long before she acknowledged them. Find some more paper, Oh willful angel, Start your wings again And perhaps they'll be stronger this time. |

when angels believe flight is never a problem I believe in you Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |
