if only I had wings...

by billysue - Capricorn


if only I had wings, 
I could fly away from here. 
I could forget all my pain, 
and never shed a tear. 
if only I had wings, 
I would never have a worry. 
just soar from tree to tree, 
never having to hurry. 
If only I had wings, 
I would be forever free. 
I would show each and everyone, 
what beauty they could see. 
but alas, 
I am but a wretched soul. 
the struggles and pain of life, 
have begun to take their toll. 
I could never be free, 
no matter how hard I tried. 
nothing can ever take me away, 
from this pain that I am tied. 
if only I had wings, 
I could forget about them all. 
ubt because of who I am, 
know I’ll always fall. 
if only I had wings…
