WINGS WITHOUT STRENGTH

WINGS WITHOUT STRENGTH

There is not a day that pass
Without me thinking of you
But my heart is perplexed 
I am confused of what to do

To stay, is to cry and feel the pain
To leave, my heart would remain behind 
And my future would be 
Dark and vain 

Because without you
I am incomplete 
Like the sky without its clothing 
Of black, blue, or grey

Or the Voice of God being Silence 
By the unrighteousness of the day

But my trust is out the window 
And I am troubled on every side 

My desire to leave you
Is like the strong wings of the eagle 
Elevated, outstretched
And ready to soar high 

But my heart you hold captive 
I have wings.. 
But no strength to fly.

Wilford Barker.
