Alone -- Poetry

 

Your broken wings are just tired from the pure blue sky

It's okay to smile... for yourself

Reaching into yourself to find strength

But there is nothing there

Thinking back to when we first began

We were so strong

And so naïve

When everything was gone, we still laughed in delight

I'm lost now; foolishly thinking that I could make it on my own

I see now

Anger and depression take over our lives

I look at you with such disgust

You look at me with such distain

Trapped in a circle of never ending lies

The breaking point has never felt so good

Your fragile wings are breaking down slowly

And you look at yourself and laugh

Because how have you survived by yourself?

Knowing there is more but thinking you are not strong enough

And a smile means nothing anymore

Take a lighter note

There is only us now

Even though we are separated, there is comfort

Everything is dying and we both laugh and smile

Because that's all we can do now

Look inside myself for weakness

Finding nothing but a broken shell

I still cry out to you

Even though I am slowly forgetting

You are too, right?

Can I be free now?

My broken wings travel though the sky

They sing with pain

But it's comforting knowing that you don't care anymore

Now I can fly on

Even though I will fall

There's nothing in this world to stay for

We are torn

Broken beyond repair

And we still laugh and smile

Because when I think of you

There is torture and prison

Spread our wings and fly on our own

Breaking apart; we are falling

Nothing can stop this despair

I am smiling

But you are gone

And then I laugh

Because I am free
