Snapped And Splintered

TheImpossibleGirl🍁🤞

My wings are broken
Snapped and splintered
Like dried up twigs in a deserted mind
The more I try to fly, the more
Damage is done
The more I try the more I am hurt
It can affect other people
If I fall again and someone is near,
I drag them down with my weight
So the only logical thing
Is to make sure no one is near
When my wings can't keep me air borne

    Well written, could feel a lot of pain and sadness in your poem. but don't forget no matter how broken or crippled you feel at times, some one around you always cares but does not show it. Could be your family, your best friend anyone. So a logical thing to do would be to keep them around so,when you come crashing down they will be strong enough to get you back on your feet. 👍

      Thank you, I have recently started opening up to people which has been an immense help, although closing off seems like the only thing to do at times, I have people in my life now that are here for me and look out for me. I wrote this at a dark time in my life which I have thankfully moved past, but I still have my moments. If anyone feels like this, I would tell them to have someone in their life who wont let you close off or push them away, no matter how much you want it 👍🤞🧡

        True.. I have experienced a similar situation in life, but fortunately I had friends and family to rely on and it help me fight through it.. The best and I feel the only way is to open up and let your close ones in. Its the cycle of life the ups and down is what makes it interesting, and it is what makes you strong, so I would say keep people who are close to you closer and fight to live an other day. 🌹
