Originally, Patricia sent this to me as a set of lyrics. I liked it but wanted to accept it as a poem and she was very professional about it and made some minor changes to accomodate me. This is her revised version. - poetheart 03/19/02
My aching arms
That long to hold
Are out of touch
And feeling cold.
Like wounded wings
Discovery of
My broken heart
And missing love.
No words spoken
No thoughts shared
So all alone
And feeling scared.
Spare my soul
Set me free
Let me go
It has to be.
No songbird sings
A joyful song
Until it's freed
When wings are strong.
