Soft feathers
Piercing white
Blinding me into a state of
Comfort and Safety.

Do they come from you?
My angel sent from above,
Have you come to save me?
Have you come to show me
Life is more than a teardrop
Slipping away from the pain inside?

Or do these feathers,
Rooted strong in their owners wings,
Ready to soar through the crisp air,
Slice through the perfectly crafted clouds,
Come from me?

Am I my own angel?
Am I my own saving grace?
Have people been lying all this time?
Telling others to hold out for that one person
That one being that can change your whole life.
Have I been mistaken that the person I've been waiting all this time for
Has been inside me all along?

Golden sunlight seeps through the blinding white clouds
As I soar above all those who have changed me
Those who have created my wounds
And spread my angel wings wide
And fly right up to Heaven.
