Wings

Someday I will find my own,
At times I think they are there,
But to my surprise I am shown,
That they are not mine to wear.
There are birds in the sky,
An angel passes by,
A butterfly takes flight,
But I am not in sight.

They would not hold the weight of me,
That is why I wait patiently,
Looking thru the window of life,
Its panes filmed in strife.

I see a clearer picture now,
And tho I may not know how,
I'll do this for you,
So that in your own heart you'll be true,
Tomorrow can be mine,
Today it is your time.

Go and take your first step,
I'll be behind you all the way,
Have faith that I'll always stay.
