WINGS

A sorrow is falling upon me
Like I have never experienced;
I am certain it is not mine.

I was scared today.
I don't want to be alone,
Even in the flesh,
But nothing can satisfy me
Except you.

And I was scared you were hurting,
And I couldn't help you,
And I tried to reach you,
But I couldn't find you,
Or you didn't want me to,
Or maybe you did,
But couldn't.

It made me feel sick,
And I couldn't breathe or eat;
But someone showed me how to soar
And then I just missed you.
