"Loved and Lost"

Flying flying soaring high

Through your mind I'm hypnotized

Arms spread out and steering through

Through the air and home to you

Sweet warm air my wings wont bend

Do pray often may this not end

A shaky wind and loss of sight

I'm blown out downward this cant be right

Falling falling catch me ground

A familiar hole dark and sound

In it lay my broken wings

Echo and fade though my nightmares still sing

Catching clawing snapping breaking

My wrists held down my heart still shaking

Wounded bird who soared so high

They'd ask me how I'd learned to fly

He taught me many breaths ago

He and more they all called home

And without fail I return to this place

Dead air and memories trapped in a maze

Neverending though to sky I stay true

I'll always believe even after you

All the love the hate the sorrow the pain

Always washing my wings always left with a stain

So why, theyll ask, when we know it must end

I'll say: It's all for the sake of knowing how to fly again

-SQ 2011
