Broken Wing

You build our foundations of women and lay our hearts in our lives while making the picture clearer and clearer.

Oh I wish.

Oh I wish the shattered pieces would melt away to the stars and shine the light upon you to make you glow like the brightest sun.

Oh but you do. Blinding. A selfless beacon of hope and unity. Hidden from you but engraved on our hearts forever.

Oh I wish.

Oh I wish the mirror viewed from our eyes and stunned you like the skipping of a heartbeat. The truth beaming out.

Hands that sacrifice and suffer and ache and toil. Hands that warm and caress and bind and heal.

A purest heart that scars with a breeze.

Oh i wish

Oh I wish
