Beneath my wings is a tear
trust
love
fear
speaking silence no soul can hear
beneath my wings is a heavy heart
moving forward
beyond the start
to find my self underneath the ash
the fire still burning
formulating a rash
yet i ignite the flames still
that flash and flicker
ignorant to what
my words might trigger
could it be a battle
assault or attack, that leaves me unable to fight back?
