Shattered Wings

By Fred

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

You soared higher than an eagle, but they broke your wingsBecause they hurt you so badly and it really stings.Your wings were spread out wide and prepared for you to soarBut they're broken now, and you can't go on anymore.Let me mend you my eagle, give me your shattered wingsSo I can bind them up with my oil and my strings.And when your wings are mended, again you must begin to flyEven if it hurts at first, and you just want to cry.See I your God have plans for your life my little birdIf you really want to find them, then look inside my word.For I your God have plans to supply your every needAnd while they may break your wings, they cannot thwart my seed.
