A Broken Wing
BEFORE
IT WAS STRONG
IT WAS NOBLE
IT COULD HOLD ME UP
IT COULD EVEN FLY
IT MADE ME
WHO I AM
AND WHAT I COULD BE
THEN
BROKEN
DISRUPTED
HURT
DESTROYED
EMPTY
LOST
CONFUSED
THINK OF IT AS A HEART
MY HEART
IN WHICH YOU BROKE
AS A BIRD THAT BROKE
ITS WING
IT IS UNABLE
TO FUNCTION
TO EVEN SURVIVE
JUST AS ALL OF US
WITHOUT OUR HEART
Now the heart revived
The wing fixed
I now take flight
In his amazing mercy
It takes me far
And builds me stronger
FIGHTS THE DEVIL
And his evil
The beating of my heart
Is strong
Spiritually will never end
As long as I’m
With him
