I know you are hurting
So am I
You're wings are broken,
Borrow mine.
I want to see you shine
And spread your wings
And fly.
You are beautiful darling
So keep your head held high.
I want you to know
That I care.

First, a few mechanical edits: -Line 1 should end with a comma -On line 3, it should be "your" -On line 8, it should be "... you are beautiful, darling," (two added commas) Over all, I think this is short, simple, and sweet. Well done.
