Broken Wings

Sadness, Loss, Redemption

 Broken Wings

I once had wings, oh so strong and true

I soared through the skies, with grace and ease

But now they're broken, tattered and torn

I plummet to the ground, brought to my knees

The pain is real, the sadness overwhelming

My heart heavy with the weight of my loss

But in my brokenness, there's a glimmer of hope

A chance to rise again, to pay the cost

I pick up the pieces, one by one

And slowly, surely, I mend what's been undone

My wings grow stronger, with each passing day

And I find redemption in a different way

For now I know the value of what's been lost

And I'll cherish it more, at any cost

So I spread my mended wings, and take to the sky

With a renewed spirit, I fly, I fly.
