Sparrows Wings - - - Inspired by Crimsin

 
My heart beats
Like fluttering wings
This is the fear
The daily terror
Tomorrow waits
Like a vulture
A hooded crow
Waits for me
He wants to take me
To the darkest of places
He wants to increase my pain
He tells me things
The drugs won’t work
The infection will return
You are going to die
His squawks a laugh
This is no laughing matter
Each new day
Could be the same
Or could be so much worse
Sometimes I pray
Not to wake up
I am in flight
With the wings of an eagle
Every mile I fly away
My wings shrink
I am not going to make it
Yesterday I had
The wings of a sparrow
My heart beats faster
Like its fluttering wings
The wings stop
I fall to the ground
Our heavenly father is not there
To catch this sparrow
But then. He never was
When I hit the ground
Tomorrow gets cancelled
It doesn’t really matter
I shuffle off
