Me, you did smite
From the sky's display
It's cold out here tonight
And I can't fly away.
The biting snow
Keeps me tethered and unfree
Because I don't know
If your heart beats for me.
Is it true
That I am just so galling?
With you I flew
Now it feels like I'm falling.
You pluck me at the summit
Feather by feather
Unaware of my plummet
Into the heather.
To wonder why
In the silence that you utter
Unable to fly
With my feet in the gutter.
At me, you frown
While your eyes attack
That feeling that I've let you down
Scared that you won't say it back.
Do not leave me all alone
There, right next to you
Give me a chance to atone
I don't know what else to do.
Your words always brutalize
Leave me on the outskirts
Because you never realise
Just how much it hurts.
Can't you see,
That I will always be faithful?
Please don't ever make me
Your Wingless Angel.
