Naked Wings
Naked wings upon my back,
sorrow and compassion I do not lack.
Frozen thoughts deep in my mind,
creeping out as if I’m blind.
Crouching down at the edge of light,
darkness shrouded by the night.
What is it that I must do,
before it’s time to say adieu?
A fallen Angel with open wounds,
mourning forever within the dunes.
