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.
