I do not have any epic metaphorical lines For this poem is not me preaching from my soul To me these are just lines on a thin sheet of paper One that floats in the wind like a bird with broken wings drenched in sorrow's blood, As it just attempts to become something better than itself Not knowing that it is doomed to be marooned on the ground of this forsaken planet Constantly being stepped on and kicked around by the wind's rough touch Constantly catching the tears of others, but stay hiding it's own behind a cloaked mask What a sad story for a weightless sheet of paper that just wanted to soar Forced to live a lie everyday Until finally it begins to decay
