Thoughts Have Wings

By Tony Pacheco

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I’ll take this in stride. Just like the last blow, Just like the stolen emotions and gone away truths. Every word for only girl, one girl too good for me. No promises are forever, it’s not fair, and I’d rather not wake up. My thoughts have wings, broken and grounded, going nowhere slow. Things wont be the same, keep your head down, hide from the truth and you can’t be hurt. Help is on the way but lightning never strikes twice in the same place. Easier to run and hide behind the phone, you cant see the hurt in my eyes, only through my voice. Sooner or later things fall apart, don’t trip over the spiral stairs, Its better to say you just don’t care. My thoughts have wings broken and grounded, but you just don’t care.
