Broken Wing

Like a bird with a broken wing,
I feel limp and helpless,
Despite my afflictions I know I must rise up
from the ashes like the Pheonix,
Beyond the horizon,
through the vastness of an eternal sky,
there you will see me fly;
The turbulent winds will suppress me no longer,
Please do not surrender to my weakness,
For I have a long journey ahead of me;
There's an intense force that lies within the
confines of my consciousness,
A force I cannot explain,
I feel stronger than an ox,
And more courageous than a lion,
I can promise you however,
That upon reaching my destination,
There I will acknowledge you,
And there you will see me.
