Take these broken wings and learn to fly, by DakotaSky Subscribe to rss feed for DakotaSky

Look at the moon so full and bright

I stand up tall with all my might

I slowly start to spread my wings

All I hear is the wind that sings

Im lifted and inch and start to fly

Then fall to the ground

My only reaction is a sigh

Silence is the only other sound

As I keep trying and do not succeed

Tears fall down my face

I let the wind take the lead

My heart reaches a faster pace

Im liftd into the stars and the dark sky so dull

Then the rush stops and I begin to fall 

When I reach the ground again

Battered wings and bruised hope

I realize this is just one try

And I can not give up and mope

I will keep trying to reach my goal

If it takes all my life

In it, I will put all my soul, strenght and strife

I will take these broken wings and learn to fly

And it will get easier with every tear I cry
