Wings of Hope

Behind my smile, is a hurting heart

Behind my laugh, I am falling apart

Surrounded by mortal bricks

I can't breathe or keep my head high

Look closely at me and you will see

The girl I am, sometimes isn't me

I want to fly, if possible even above the sky

But their thoughts are always bullying me by

I want to smile, if possible laugh out loud

Society barriers keeps me lonely in the crowd

I want to talk, if possible pour my heart out

But the Red Lips are only to display pout, not shout

I want to learn, if possible explore the world

But the mundane bonds keep me chained in the underworld

Let me spread my wings, let them be free

Let me dance with the flowing wind and scream yippee

Let me breathe happiness and rest the sorrow underneath

Allow me to fly high, if possible even above the sky
