Its easy to steal others wings and
Claim them as your own
Its easy to paint over your defects
And make believe theyre dead
Its easy to board up the windows to
seal off the glare
But sooner or later
The paint is going to peel
The wood will start to rot
And youll discover then that its
Not so smooth a flight
When you ride solely on
Your airbrushed lies
Youll know then that broken wings
Are very hard to mend
Dont you see?
Thats the way deception plays
It lets you think youre winning, then
Just as youre fingering your crown
It spins around and gores you through
With long-buried ghosts hungry for vengeance
Close your eyes, this is going
to hurt more than hell
Cant you tell?
I have made all these mistakes
So I should know
I wonder why I always take so damn long to learn
I was the stupid one
Who started it all.

I always refer to myself as an "emotional idiot" and wonder why it takes me so long to learn any better, so I could relate. An emotional and honest write. Love some of the images.

I could certainly relate to this poem. Gosh I have made huge mistakes in the past and have lived with the repercussions. I still make mistakes but I work to not repeat them.
Loved this poem.... Kie |

You are 16 if I remember correctly so then I must assume that you are still young.. mistakes you have made and many more are to come. As I have lived it.. mistakes are our constant friend...but do not despair for in their wake mistakes gives us a lesson valuable to partake... but if you swathe yourself in lies then I digress to relate for in the end as you say it we will pay a terrible price. Anyway mistakes we make just make sure from them you learn.
Very moving write..quite relatable to me at least... but not hopeles in exact... good write! |

some mistakes you must life with for eternity... and that my friends can sometimes be a tradegy... nice write... i enoyed your use of words... especially
The paint is going to peel
The wood will start to rot
And you’ll discover then that it’s
Not so smooth a flight
When you ride solely on
Your airbrushed lies
