Magic Wings
You wipe away trickling tears,
but they reappear with ease.
And each drop is laced with fears,
for lies no longer appease.
With your future drained of hope,
happiness has slipped your grip.
And you now struggle to cope,
suppressing a trembling lip.
Anxious to embrace your fate,
innocence dons trusting eyes.
And frustration fosters hate,
camouflaging truth with lies.
Aware of the pain love brings,
anxieties start to climb.
And you dream of magic wings,
to escape the hands of time.
From the fringes of disdain,
emptiness consumes your day.
For abandoned once again,
love fades, yet heartaches stay.
