These Wings

Just Know I Am Happy

By Cassiie EtiennePublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

They were minethese wings.But you took themfor your own.They were meant for meto fly in the directionsI wanted.But you took my wingsand flew the directionsYou needed. As the years went by...

My wings were shredding,it was getting harder and harderto fly, barely getting off the ground.your words made me smallSo I was not able to grow my wings.

I looked at myself and I had enough.You made me never have a voice, But I'm taking it back.

Just know I am happyyou can finally hear my voiceJust know I am happythe fear you gave me, doesn't cripple me anymore.

Just know I am happy.
