I watched her slice off her own wings
Just because someone else asked her to
And I watched her give them away
Because someone else needed them
Tears spring into my eyes as I watch this
What do I do?
I watched her walking on her own
Just because they were all too busy
And I watched her give them away
No one else should have them
Tears no longer are an issue
Would she listen to me?
I watched her wings get passed around
Just because they were all too busy
And I watched her give them away
Just because she could
I grind my teeth together
What do I do?
I snatched her wings away again
Just because I could
No one else should have them
Tears are no longer the issue
They won’t be again
What to do now?
I take her wings away with me
And I mend them both myself
It took some time
But I was patient
Pain is no longer her issue
Will she listen to me?
I gave her both her wings again
I watched her widening smile
I took a step back
And she took off
My own smile is evident
This would be worth it
