Broken wings of my prayers

462 51 15
                                    

the wings
of my prayers
get shot by the
bullets of lies

yet,
they fly,
higher
and
higher

bleeding
and panting,
they reach
the fine,
bright,
heaven doors

but
the doors
are forbidden
for my prayers

so
they ricochet
back to me
every time

— so does my pain
