Broken wings surround

Shelter me in your embrace

Your feathers have burned

Specks of ash cover your solemn face

Your elegant eyes are merciless

As the wind whips through your silhouette of grace

Shade my eyes from impurity

I put my trust in you, will you put your trust in me?

Instill your undying beauty

Your essence burns in me

Your voice fills my heart

With words to lift my soul to fly

I close my eyes

As fingers brush my lips

Words like poetry, dreams take form

And spreading wings

Your essence burns in me
