I wish that I could fly,
I’m burdened by broken wings,
I’m just a damaged soul,
With time slipping through my hands,
Please,
Can you see me?
I hide from this life of mine,
I’m just a bitter man,
Who no-one can understand,
Please,
Can you free me?
From these chains that are made to bind,
I tried to face the pain,
Even god has forsaken me,
Please,
Can you know me?
I pray that you will remember me,
I bleed the same way,
Even though I have a blackened heart,
Please,
Can you save me?
I’ve never had someone who cares,
I have a cross to bear,
These are scars that I have to wear,
Please,
Can you love me?
When I don’t even love myself,
I wished that I could fly,
I was burdened by broken wings……

Beautiful words, made me cry… Your words have described some issues what I am going through now. Thank you for writing this. My pain seems to have found a description in your words

Heartbreak made me cry… Your poem gave words to the inner feelings… So you didn’t make me cry. Your words kind of defroze a sliver of my heart and I could cry my pain. Then the heart froze back. I am kind of numb..
So worry not, my dear friend, this is life and I am so happy what I couldn’t say in words, your poem did. Thank you

Well, what can I say, I’m complicated. I dabble in deep and meaningful poetry and then make pussy jokes. It’s a fine balance though if you want pussy joke poetry look up fluffy bunny on my blog.👍😂
