My Wings

I wish I could be a fortune teller
And see what the future brings
Actually my true wish is to fly
So lightly upon my wings

I could run away on Christmas
And never look back to see
This house of little horrors
That’s waiting here for me

I could fly away from the friendships
That often make me cry
I could meet a whole new land of people
If I could only fly

I could escape the pain and sorrow
That seems to consume my day
My wings upon my shoulder
Are my new found form of faith

I could be that dark angel
Who escapes every time
From the darkness, hurt, and anger
That have long been confined

I could fly away from the screams
That always hurt my ears
Erase the angry words
That fall with every tear

I could fly away from the memories
And simply leave them behind
The visions of new places
Will erase them from my mind

I could go so many places
And see so many things
I could escape this horrid life
If I only had my wings
